After months of negotiation, we reached a bipartisan infrastructure deal that will make historic investments across our nation’s transit, high-speed broadband, and water systems.

For this week's #WhiteHouseDeepDive, we're digging into the Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework will make the largest investment in bridges since the interstate highway system was created. It will replace the 10 most economically significant bridges and 10,000 more small bridges throughout the country.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework is also the most significant investment in passenger rail since Amtrak was constructed.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework will invest in 500,000 electric vehicle chargers across the country and electrifying 35,000 school buses.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework will make a long overdue, historic impact on our nation's water systems. The plan will replace 100% of our dangerous lead pipes and deliver clean drinking water to every American.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework focuses on increasing the climate resiliency of communities. It will elevate buildings, roads, and bridges, winterize the power grid, help low-income families with flood insurance, and fund state and local emergency response strategies.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework will also deliver affordable, high-speed internet to every house in America — supporting every American's access to the modern economy.

By repairing our crumbling infrastructure, we can increase equity for communities of color who have been hit hardest by decades of infrastructure neglect, legacy pollution, and the climate crisis.

How will we pay for the repairs and expansion of our infrastructure?

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework won't raise taxes for any earner making less than $400K a year and will allocate funds to the IRS so they can ensure the wealthy pay their fair share.
