And since Reagan's time federal infrastructure spending as a proportion of total infrastructure spending has been "less and less." No surprise the decline started with Ronald. Today local and state governments cough up 75% of it.

An "historic investment in U.S. infrastructure." Super! All will be able to drive more safely, car or bicycle.
