Senate passes massive infrastructure Bill

Biden celebrates major bipartisan win, vows to transform America

U.S. President Joe Biden hailed the Senate passage on Tuesday of a “historic” $1.2 trillion infrastructure package, celebrating a major bipartisan win on a plan he vowed would “transform America.” By funding work on roads, bridges and ports, as well as clean water and high-speed internet, Mr. Biden said the Bill — which still needs House approval — would create thousands of high-paying jobs for people without college degrees. “This historic investment infrastructure is what I believe you, the American people, want,” he said in a White House address. “This Bill shows that we can work together,” he added.
