There is a need not just for improvements, but critically to repair/replace bridges, roads, sewers etc that are beyond the end of their useful life. In a place as young as TV we see sewers failing, a bridge that they tell us is going to fall into the lake etc. Multiply that times every location in America, and consider that much of the infrastructure is OLD. Both parties have promised to get going on this critical need. The issue, as always, is how to pay for it.
