You're right - it's not 45% pork.
It's 100% Tammany Democrat pork.
Democrats: Deranged Nazis.
You are lying. What joy do you get out of it?Incorrect.
Irrelevant if true.
The National Guard would have maintained order, but the Democrats wanted chaos and death.
Democrats: Deranged Nazis.
Thank you for that fine display of maturity and emotional inteligence! As always, you rais the bard on the level of civil discourse and the sharing of insights and knowledge on the USMB. Please keep it comming. We have so much to learn from you!Cry harder. You can’t handle the truth. Remove your face from your boyfriend’s crotch and seek help for your TDS. And an ESL course...
Your list of actual infrastructure comes to $231 Billion. I omitted broadband, electric vehicles subsidies, and environmental remediation as they don't qualify.YOU have no idea what you are talking about! Why don't you research it for yourself, instead of just believing in the partisan scum that is making up total bull crap?
Both Republicans and Democrats voted for it. It was 100% infrastructure funding. STOP LYING....!!!!!!!!
Here's what's in the infrastructure package:
Funding for roads and bridges
The legislation calls for investing $110 billion for roads, bridges and major infrastructure projects. That's significantly less than the $159 billion that Biden initially requested in the American Jobs Plan.
Included is $40 billion for bridge repair, replacement and rehabilitation, according to the text. The White House says it would be the single, largest dedicated bridge investment since the construction of the interstate highway system, which started in the 1950s.
The deal also contains $16 billion for major projects that would be too large or complex for traditional funding programs, according to the White House.
Some 20%, or 173,000 miles, of the nation's highways and major roads are in poor condition, as are 45,000 bridges, according to the White House.
The investments will focus on climate change mitigation, resilience, equity and safety for all users, including cyclists and pedestrians.
Also in the package is $11 billion for transportation safety, including a program to help states and localities reduce crashes and fatalities, especially of cyclists and pedestrians, according to the White House. It will direct funding for safety efforts involving highways, trucks, and pipeline and hazardous materials.
And it contains $1 billion to reconnect communities -- mainly disproportionately Black neighborhoods -- that were divided by highways and other infrastructure, according to the White House. It will fund planning, design, demolition and reconstruction of street grids, parks or other infrastructure.
Money for transit and rail
The package provides $39 billion to modernize public transit, according to the text. That's less than the $85 billion that Biden initially wanted to invest in modernizing transit systems and help them expand to meet rider demand.
The funds will repair and upgrade existing infrastructure, make stations accessible to all users, bring transit service to new communities and modernize rail and bus fleets, including replacing thousands of vehicles with zero-emission models, according to the White House.
The deal will also invest $66 billion in passenger and freight rail, according to the text. The funds would eliminate Amtrak's maintenance backlog, modernize the Northeast Corridor line and bring rail service to areas outside the Northeast and mid-Atlantic regions, according to the White House. Included in the package is $12 billion in partnership grants for intercity rail service, including high-speed rail.
The funding is less than the $80 billion Biden originally wanted to send to Amtrak, which he relied upon for decades to get home to Delaware from Washington, DC.
Still, it would be the largest federal investment in public transit in history and in passenger rail since the creation of Amtrak 50 years ago, according to the White House.
Broadband upgrade
The legislation provides a $65 billion investment in improving the nation's broadband infrastructure, according to the text. Biden initially wanted to invest $100 billion in broadband.

It also aims to help lower the price households pay for internet service by requiring federal funding recipients to offer a low-cost affordable plan, by creating price transparency and by boosting competition in areas where existing providers aren't providing adequate service. It will also create a permanent federal program to help more low-income households access the internet, according to the White House fact sheet.
Upgrading airports, ports and waterways
The deal will invest $17 billion in port infrastructure and $25 billion in airports to address repair and maintenance backlogs, reduce congestion and emissions near ports and airports and promote electrification and other low-carbon technologies, according to the White House.
It is similar to the funding in Biden's original proposal.
Electric vehicles
The legislation will provide $7.5 billion for zero- and low-emission buses and ferries, aiming to deliver thousands of electric school buses to districts across the country, according to the White House.
Another $7.5 billion will go to building a nationwide network of plug-in electric vehicle chargers, according to the text.
Improving power and water systems
The package invests $65 billion to rebuild the electric grid, according to the White House. It calls for building thousands of miles of new power lines and expanding renewable energy, the White House said.
It provides $55 billion to upgrade water infrastructure, according to the text. It will replace lead service lines and pipes so that communities have access to clean drinking water, the White House said.
Another $50 billion will go toward making the system more resilient -- protecting it from drought, floods and cyberattacks, the White House said.
Environmental remediation
The package provides $21 billion to clean up Superfund and brownfield sites, reclaim abandoned mine land and cap orphaned gas wells, according to the White House

Unless Trump can provide some explanation of his lack of concern…….He will be accountable
Show where he said that.
President Trump knew the FBI was on the ground there.
Maybe he trusted the wrong people, but he wouldn't be alone in that aspect.
.
Show where he said that
So it is another fantasy.
You can request the memo from the FBI, but I seriously doubt they will forward it to you ...
