In November 2021, President Joe Biden signed the bipartisan $1 trillion infrastructure bill into law. The bill was written with the intention of rebuilding and improving the nation’s roads, bridges, highways, tunnels and internet access.
Shortly after it was signed into law U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg called it “the most significant investment in jobs and infrastructure in my lifetime,” saying the bill will “rebuild and replace infrastructure that is decades, or even a century, old.”
