In case you missed it, on Friday, President Biden announced $27 billion in funding to fix 15,000 bridges across the country in all 50 states, D.C., Puerto Rico, and Tribal communities thanks to his Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. With this announcement, bridges will become safer and more usable, and small towns and rural areas will have better access to essential services and businesses – all while creating good-paying jobs.
