The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act is a historic step forward. It will modernize our nation\u2019s roads, bridges, ports, and public transportation systems, expand broadband, get lead out of our drinking water, and address climate change. It will add 2 million jobs per year over the course of the next decade \u2014 jobs that are good paying, green, and protected by unions.\n\n\u201cWith this bill signed into law, we have reached a milestone in our work to recover and rebuild a stronger economy. We must now fulfil our commitment to build a more just, sustainable, and inclusive tomorrow for every worker, woman, and family by passing the Build Back Better Act. Together, we will enact transformative progress for every American and for our future.\u201d\n\nThe Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act includes provisions to:\n\nRepair roads and bridges with the single largest dedicated bridge investment since the construction of the interstate highway system.\n\nInvest in public transit and rail with the largest investment in public transit and passenger rail since the creation of Amtrak.\n\nExpand broadband by ensuring every American has access to reliable high-speed internet, all the more critical after COVID.\n\nSecure clean water by making the largest investment in clean drinking water and wastewater infrastructure in American history, replacing lead pipes and delivering clean water to millions of families.\n\nImprove supply chain channels by investing in our ports, water systems and airports.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T20:30:49Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://katherineclark.house.gov/press-releases?ID=8A58DCDF-AFC9-476C-80F3-F7713FC82624"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8997111581265926, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
