US Federal politics (mostly good news)
«Biden signed the $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure plan into law – the largest federal investment in infrastructure in more than a decade…In the House, Democratic leaders expect to vote on the roughly $2 trillion climate, safety net, and tax package this week and send it to the Senate…If the social safety net and climate bill passes the House and Senate, the total increased infrastructure spending as a share of the economy will eclipse Roosevelt’s New Deal.»

Public transit funding, electrical grid upgrades & expanded access to broadband are all being funded by this package which I’m happy about
Not personally thrilled by the amount of $$ going to highways and roads but I’m not surprised its in there and it will help some people so whatever
