What Rebuilding America Means for You
Our nation's infrastructure has long been our economic backbone. A well-performing transportation network keeps jobs in America, allows businesses to expand, and lowers prices on household goods for American families.
But we've been investing in our infrastructure less and less -- and, as a result, congestion and maintenance backlogs have gone up:
65% of our roads are rated in less than good condition
25% of our bridges require significant repair or can't handle today's traffic
45% of Americans lack access to transit
It's time to rebuild our roads and bridges in a smarter, more responsible way while supporting millions of jobs.
