| 64 years ago the Interstate Highway System remade America. Our landmark infrastructure legislation were now debating is our own blueprint for the next century. A blueprint that is big and bold but also clean. Because a great nation invests in its future. We are. | Our roads need to be fixed, but we dont need a $1.5 trillion Green Infrastructure Disaster chock full of new expensive mandates that leaves rural America behind, and saddles future generations of Americans with even more debt. |

| Chair @RepMaloney spoke on the House floor today in support of the #MovingForwardAct. This bill delivers on @HouseDemocrats’ pledge to improve our nations infrastructure #ForThePeople. | We went to bed thinking @HouseDemocrats were pushing a $500 billion infrastructure bill. We woke up to a $1.5 trillion climate change nightmare enacting the socialist #GreenNewDeal. |

| Were facing an infrastructure crisis that demands more investment in housing, transportation options, schools, and broadband. The #MovingForward Act provides bold solutions by boosting funding, addressing the climate crisis & improving resiliency and equity. | We’re voting today on HR 2, House Democrats’ massive infrastructure bill. We clearly need change, but this bill just throws more money at problems without addressing the underlying issues. Infrastructure is a bipartisan issue; unfortunately, HR 2 is not a bipartisan solution. |

| Investing in our nation’s infrastructure means bringing it into the 21st century. It means modern, safer roads, bridges, and transit systems. The #MovingForward Act will deliver far-reaching, forward-thinking progress on infrastructure for communities around the country. | Historically, SST has jurisdiction over the R&D title of Congress’ infrastructure bill. Unlike T&I, the Science Committee produced a bipartisan title for this bill. We worked together. We compromised. Sadly, none of SST’s work is included in this bill. We must do better! |
