This is why it's very important for We the People to pay attention to what our state's doing so our corrupt politicians don't put the money in their pocket while we drink from lead-lined water pipes.
What’s the point of this bill if it won’t be used on what it is intended for!
What's your point, everyone knows there are no guarantees.
Well that just goes 2 show the possible corruptions n local ,particularly n Red states who siphoned off these monies 4 them & their cohorts.
But at least it's a start and assuming both a State-based (nothing elaborate) audit system.
Unfortunately only 11% of the money allocated in Biden’s infrastructure bill actually went for infrastructure.
Yet Republican Congressional members will take credit for the infrastructure money, while failing to actually vote for the bill.
Money should come with strings attached and they myst soend it on infrastructure by..or it will be forfeited
Many did not spend their Covid money properly.
Well who would have thought that Republicans would not want to fix roads and bridges in their state's instead use it to pay law makers more money buy airplanes. Instead of making sure that the money creates jobs and brings the state up to 2020 standards for all residents
Yes and the state senators that vote against it should not be awarded jack shit
Of course.
LEGALIZE WEED ON FEDERAL LEVEL!!
Politico headline if Biden had mandated it: “Biden ties states’ hands. Forces them to spend money in specific ways.”
We know there will be states that rip off their constituents. It’s a shame certain governors will take the money for themselves and their “special” voters.
'Offers no guarantees'- wtf does that mean? What legislation offers guarantees? The story is 'governors refuse to use federal money to repair bridges.'
Sounds like we need to put pressure on legislators to get the work done. Good for our President for passing this much needed legislation!!!
