Tim Driscoll: The $1.2 infrastructure bill was a great down payment. Roads, bridges, water, broadband, ports. These roads are to get us somewhere, like work, school, etc., so we need a lot of broad investment.

Tim Driscoll: Congratulations to President Biden for moving forward on infrastructure. Pres. Trump talked about it for 4 yrs; Mitch McConnell was Majority Leader for 6 yrs, & nothing happened till Pres. Biden pushed it through.

Tim Driscoll: Prevailing wages are available to all workers on the job, not just to union workers. It supports the ability of the worker to live in that community & to contribute back to that community.
