Palmer | P000609 | palmer.house.gov | palmer | https://palmer.house.gov/media-center/press-releases | scraper | For Immediate Release Media Contact: Elizabeth Hance (202) 225-4921 Palmer on Passage of Democrat Infrastructure Bill Washington, D.C. – Tonight in the House of Representatives, after weeks of debate and disorder within their ranks, the Democrats passed their infrastructure bill, but further delayed a vote on their Build Back Better tax-and-spending package. Congressman Gary Palmer (AL-06) released the following statement: “Democrats have been in disarray and arguing amongst themselves for weeks over the specifics of these bills. The fundamental problems with both bills haven’t changed,” Palmer said. “Our economy is struggling, and our national debt already presents a serious national security threat, but the Democrats have shown they are willing to recklessly push through a bill that costs over a trillion dollars with only about 10 percent going to roads and bridges. I fully support funding for infrastructure that is focused on national priorities rather than wasting hundreds of billions of dollars on a Green New Deal wish list and programs under the guise of human infrastructure that simply expand government control of our lives. Palmer concluded, “At least the bill includes legislation which I introduced with Rep. David Trone (D-MD) that includes funding for the Birmingham Northern Beltline.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:30:49Z |
