Ranking Member Larsen Statement on “Infrastructure Week”
Over the last 2.5 years the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law has made more than 56,000 projects possible for thousands of communities across the country—at least one in every single Congressional district in America
Washington, D.C. – Today, Ranking Member of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure Rick Larsen (D-WA) released the following statement as “Infrastructure Week” gets underway.
“Every day is Infrastructure Day in my state of Washington and across the country,” Ranking Member Larsen said. “The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is providing game-changing investments to upgrade the nation’s infrastructure, create good-paying jobs, and maintain economic competitiveness for years to come. Infrastructure Week is a reminder of what can be achieved when Congress breaks free of gridlock and fights for a system that works for everyone. As Ranking Member, I am laser-focused on ensuring these investments don’t stop at the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law; that’s why we’re getting the FAA reauthorization across the finish line and working to pass pipeline safety, the Water Resources Development Act (WRDA), and Coast Guard authorization legislation. Today, I’m celebrating the benefits of investments to create cleaner, greener, safer and more accessible transportation for communities across the country.”
