OverviewI think if we all look back at American history, we know how important infrastructure investment has been to this Nation. We connected the East and the West Coasts by rail in 1869, which ushered in the Second Industrial Revolution. We began building the interstate highway system in the 1950s. We did it with a Democratic Congress, I will note, and a Republican President. And we are now at a state of need for infrastructure. I know that, coming from the State of Minnesota, where in the middle of a summer day, a bridge collapsed in the middle of my State. I think we all know this aging infrastructure does not suit our country. It is not America. And mostly, as we look at how we expand our economy so we become a country that makes stuff and invents things and exports to the world again, and we are in the course of doing that, to do that we need a transportation system that matches our needs.
