Addressing infrastructure, climate, & environmental justice together to create millions of good paying jobs is the right combination to meet America's challenges

I'll work with @POTUS to pass a big, bold bill to drive America forward for decades to comehttps://t.co/RbFOLsFjXe
President Biden will begin selling his $2 trillion infrastructure plan today in Pittsburgh, saying it would fix 20,000 miles of roads and 10,000 bridges, while also addressing climate change and racial inequities and raising corporate taxes. Details: https://t.co/mfTn6vsuLK

Biden infrastructure plan talks about broadband like the Electrification Act of 1936. Promises ongoing affordability and choice for consumers. If passed, this is going to be quite a journey: https://t.co/WG1MCbxtjY

One slice of this proposal that shouldn't be missed: As @kellymakena notes, Biden’s 100% broadband coverage commitment prioritizes networks affiliated with local governments + nonprofits over corporate giants.

A touch of anti-trust regulation found its way into the jobs plan! https://t.co/HN2Z6ysAdf
Broadband for 100% of us. I'm all in.

1 striking thing about the ultimate Biden infrastructure plan released today is it’s even more deficit averse than I suggested — WH saying ~$2T in spending will be paid for in full with new tax hikes on businesses. Surprise to many observershttps://t.co/AVJn8gJzdp https://t.co/wXeXLq4FER
— Jeff Stein (@JStein_WaPo) March 31, 2021
there’s been some pressure on the FCC by senators like @MichaelBennet to increase base broadband speeds. will be interesting to see if anything changes over the next few weekshttps://t.co/cZ5DX5kSRm

The pandemic has proven that access to reliable/fast internet is a necessity. But trusting private ISPs to handle this will end up with them just pocketing the $$ w/ nothing to show for it. Internet should be deemed an essential utility and nationalized.https://t.co/m0kgCcQxuW

“Caregiving is an essential American infrastructure. The government's investment in care is a sustainable jobs program... it's done by a majority women of color workforce and it's the same population that's lost the lion's share of jobs during COVID.” https://t.co/ipgUFCIzKA

President Biden's $2 trillion, 8-year "American Jobs Plan” contains money for wide-ranging interests from roads to the power grid and will include money for cleaning up abandoned mines—an obvious nod to coal state senators who could be key to its passage.https://t.co/2fANg7VJM8
