"Our country became great because Americans dreamed big, built big, and made bold decisions. Working together, we spanned rivers, electrified rural America, built railroads across the continent, connected cities thousands of miles apart with highways, and moved information faster than humans ever imagined possible. Those investments created millions of jobs, led to unprecedented mobility and innovation, and established America as the envy of the world. Today, millions of Americans see aging airports and rightly wonder if we're still capable of tackling the toughest challenges our country faces in a bold, bipartisan manner. That's why I'm proud to lead this effort with
"The release of this comprehensive report proves there is real bipartisan support for improving our nation's aging infrastructure. It's a first step towards reforming our regulatory environment, modernizing transportation infrastructure, and expanding the internet's reach into rural communities. I am thankful for the leadership of my colleagues throughout this process, and I look forward to continuing our bipartisan work to find solutions for the American people." - Rep.
"I'm proud to stand with my colleagues from the
"America's infrastructure is in desperate need for fresh investment. Our roads and bridges are crumbling, while rural communities remain underserved by broadband services. This plan is a common-sense approach to one of our nation's most immediate problems. I look forward to leveraging the ideas here in 2018 as
"America has a 21st century economy supported by a 20th century infrastructure. Potholes don't fix themselves. Our roads and bridges are crumbling. Whole swaths of the country lack access to basic broadband. America needs a long-term infrastructure bill with a sustainable funding source." - Rep.
"This is what Americans are crying out for, bipartisan cooperation that gets things done which improve their everyday lives. Infrastructure investment is about jobs. Not just jobs for people who do the building and rebuilding, but jobs created when American businesses are made more efficient through better infrastructure. It's also about a better quality of life for all Americans with less congestion, less pollution, cleaner water, and other improvements." - Rep.
"The infrastructure in this country is outdated, and it's an issue all Americans want to see fixed. I'm proud to be part of a bipartisan approach that includes the rebuilding and investing of our roads, bridges, and ports - but also ensures we have a modern energy grid, broadband networks, and clean, sustainable water systems nationwide. Our

"A safe, reliable, and modern infrastructure network is critical to a strong and vibrant economy. Each day, Pennsylvanians travel on roads and utilize public transit for daily commutes and recreation. First responders and law enforcement officials rely on it to keep our communities safe. The time is now to push ahead with big and bold innovative modernizations to our infrastructure. As the
"Infrastructure is not a Democratic or Republican issue. There is bipartisan consensus that we need big, bold investments in our crumbling infrastructure - not only in roads and bridges, but in broadband and aging water systems that will protect the health of children and families and keep this nation competitive. This report provides a roadmap of options for rebuilding America's infrastructure and bringing it into the 21st Century." - Rep.
"Being from
"We desperately need to invest in roads, bridges, and general infrastructure, and the only way we are going to get that done is through bipartisan collaboration. In too many communities we are suffering the consequences of underfunding infrastructure for far too long. It can be seen in traffic jams on the way to work - or in our public school buildings, some of which are too small and falling apart - and the lack of broadband in rural areas. It's vital to the economy to step up the federal government's investment in a broad range of infrastructure projects, and I'm determined to get it done." - Rep.
"Our region is at the heart of our country's most important economic corridor, and to take advantage of that we need safe, modern infrastructure. It's critical we work in a bipartisan way to find creative solutions for a challenge so important to jobs and economic prosperity for
"Investing in our nation's infrastructure is good for the economy, good for jobs and good for our country. For far too long our crumbling infrastructure has been neglected and I'm looking forward to, in a bipartisan manner, work together to fix it." - Rep.
