Investing in our nation’s infrastructure means not just funding bridges and roads, but also addressing climate change and creating a care economy that lifts children out of poverty and supports working families.
The BBB Act will be the most life-changing investment in families in generations, bettering the lives of millions of children, saving parents thousands of dollars, and adding two years of free, universal schooling to our education system for the first time in over 100 years.
This package will cut taxes for tens of millions of middle-class families and is the biggest expansion of affordable health care in a decade.
It would authorize the first-ever, universal, comprehensive paid leave benefit for all U.S. workers and provide access to affordable coverage in ACA Marketplaces to roughly 4 million uninsured Americans who live in states that have not expanded Medicaid coverage under the ACA.
Critically, this package WILL BE THE LARGEST EFFORT TO COMBAT CLIMATE CHANGE IN HISTORY. I am proud that the BBB Act includes provisions @OversightDems championed to electrify the @USPS and fed gov't vehicle fleets and make the fed gov't a leader on combatting climate change.
And at my urging, the #BuildBackBetter Act also provides $2.86 billion to the World Trade Center Health Program, which provides medical treatment and monitoring for more than 110,000 responders and survivors across the country – including 2,800 in my district.
Read my entire statement on how this agenda grows the economy so that every American, regardless of their background, can get ahead. 👇
