Biden says government will start repairing more than 65,000 miles of highway and 1,500 bridges this year
From CNN's Sam Fossum
President Biden during his State of the Union remarks announced that his administration plans to start fixing over 65,000 miles of highway and 1,500 bridges this year through funds from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.
"And tonight, I’m announcing that this year we will start fixing over 65,000 miles of highway and 1,500 bridges in disrepair," Biden said in remarks from the House chamber. "We’re done talking about infrastructure weeks. We’re now going to talk about an infrastructure decade."
Biden touted the bipartisan bill and thanked both parties for their work, tying the law to American competition with China.
"Look, it's going to transform America and put us on a path to win the economic competition of the 21st century that we face with the rest of the world—particularly with China," Biden said.
He added, "I’ve told Xi Jinping, it's never been a good bet to bet against the American people."
