Good afternoon, everyone. Thank you for being here. This is a great day for us. Of course it began well in the Supreme Court of the United States when the constitution was upheld and that was a beautiful thing and now we are here to talk about how we go into the future. When we won in 2018, we said to the American People that for the people, we would lower the cost of health care by lowering the cost of prescription drugs and preserving the preexisting condition. Low er health care costs. Bigger paychecks by building the infrastructure of america ain a green and resilient way and third, we would have cleaner government. Cleaner government by improving, enhancing the voice of small donors and the grass roots in our political process. Between now and fourth of july, we will bring the aca enhancement legislation to the floor on june 29th. Next week, we will bring the justice and policing act, part of our bill initiatives to the floor. Before the fourth of july, well bring this important legislation we have moving forward act. And i want to salute mightily the chairman of the infrastructure and Transportation Committee for being our maestro in all of this. For decades, he has served on that committee. He knows the territory, the roads and bridges. So for us to say our hopes are riding on you is an easy thing to say and in that orchestration are many other aspects of building the infrastructure. And thats why im so honored that chairman neil, the chair of the ways and Means Committee is with us in person. Very important part of the legislation, to make real the promise of building the infrastructure in a resilient way. Joining us virtually is the chair of the energy and Commerce Committee and chair of the education committee, bobby scott, Frank Pallone and Maxine Waters and ill get to them in a moment but first, let me just say that when we talk about building roads and bridges and railroads and ports and harbors, that is so important. Its job b creating in its essen essence, but also commerce promoting. So it grows the economy of our country. And then again in this legislation, were ensuring that all, and i thank you, mr. Difazio owe for that, mr. Pallone, that all communities have clean Drinking Water, have invested in clean Water Infrastructure as well as expanding affordable high speed internet, which is in this bill. Which is part of mr. Pallones committee. And then when we talk about rebuilding and reopening our schools, i thank mr. Scott of virginia, the chairman of the education and labor committee. We tell children that studying is important. Its important in their personal lives. Its important to keep america preimminent in the world and yet we send them to schools which give them a different message if theyre not up to par to respect the learning of the children. Thank you, mr. Scott. Housing, Affordable Housing, challenges the conscious of our country right now. Homelessness and access to Affordable Housing. We thank Maxine Waters r for her leadership as chair of the Financial Services committee for the serving underserved, so many in our community with the housing legislation that is contained here. And again, we have something for the postal service. The infrastructure piece of the postal service. Connected tissue of our country. Our postal service. Over oit 90 of medicines rece by veterans are through the postal service. I thank Carolyn Maloney for her strong role in all of this. So for these and other reasons, this is a, just a happy day for us to be able to put forth something so comprehensive, so well thought out, so job creating, so economically growing of the economy, preserving of our planet, respectful of our children, meeting the needs for housing in our country and again, preserving probably one of the most popular entities of government, federal government, the postal service. So for these and other reasons, i thank our chairman for their extraordinary leadership. And now i want to yield the floor with Great Respect because hes now on what, how many hours . 16. 16th hour of mark up for this important legislation. So many amendments and again, so much experience. So much idealism. So much knowledge. About how to get the job done, our distinguished chair of the committee, mr. Difazio owe. Thank you, madame speaker. Pleased to be here today, take a little break from the amendment process. The, we are going through a full legislative process. Theres a lot of pent up enthusiasm and demand for rebuilding americas infrastructu infrastructure. Weve been living off the legacy of the eyes in our era and the policys slightly modified of the eisenhower era for more than half a century. Much of that sfrux has reached the end of its useful life. 106 billion to bring up transit to a state of good repair. 40 of national highway systems deteriorated to the point you have to totally rebuild it. 47,000 bridges on national highway system that need substantial repair or replacement. But the bill goes far beyond that. We emphasize state of good repair, but were making the largest ever investments in transit to provide americans with new transit options for the future. To help deal with congestion and to help reduce fossil fuel use. The bill is extraordinarily ambitious. The republicans have been a bit critical at points saying this is Green New Deal 2. 0. This is the application of the principles of the Green New Deal and this proves that we can both deal with Climate Change, fossil fuel pollution and actually create millions of new high paying american jobs. That is the promise of this legislation. We are looking at rebuilding the system in a way that is resilient to Climate Change. Meaning the other side of the aisle doesnt agree with that, but to deal with Severe Weather events which they do agree with and sea level rise, which happens to be, they also agree with. So the new system will be rebuilt in a way that is resilient to those things. Were also encouraging and Incentivising States to use new materials. Theres tremendous work going on in the paving and concrete industry on moving to less carbon intense and potentially Carbon Neutral or negative materials for rebuilding the system. Were not going to saddle the next generation with the need to rebuild bridges or redo the highways or totally redo our transit systems. Were going to build for 100 yearstandard in this bill. And were also going to following in the fast act, which was a bipartisan bill, we designated, every state designated critical routes for the future of electrification or alternate fuels across the country. This bill is going to make very significant investments in actually delivering on the promise of designated routes which have received no federal assistance. So theyll be tremendous investment in electrification and other Carbon Neutral fuels potentially along those routes. This is supplemented by work from mr. Pallones committee and hell address that in building out the grid and being able to provide sustainable power for these charging areas. Beyond Service Transportation and transit, the bill also would invest in americas harbors. The most efficient way, the least carbon polluting way, even with current fossil fuel powered vehicles, to move freight in the United States or anywhere in the is by water. And many of our harbors are limited on a daily basis. You know, our largest harbors, 58 of them, are at well less than half of their capacity in terms of dredge steps. Jetties that are falling apart, yet theres 9. 3 billion sitting in the treasury that had been collected from the american taxpayers under a law passed in the reagan era to pass that. We need to also invest the past taxes that have been collected in our harbors. There is also investment in the inland waterways. Critical to the movement of foreign goods and export and other goods out of the United States of america. Many of the locks and jetty, and levies were dealing with on that system were built by fabulous engineers and designed by fabulous engineers 100 to 120 years ago. They do have a life span. So were going to do harbors, inland waterways, were also for the First Time Since 1987, we are going to invest and partner with communities on waste water. I was a county commissioner back in the old days. We built a metropolitian Waste Water Management commission thats still serving our region well even though weve more than doubled in that time. Two cities and also unincorporated areas. We got an 85 federal match. Now the match for most communities is zero. For the first time, reauthorizing it since 1987 with some Grant Programs for disstressed community. Zero interest loans for others and low interest loans for those that can more afford it and were going to add a provision which makes a heck of a will the of sense. Again, those who dont believe in Climate Change, tough luck. Were going to deal with it. And all were going to say if you take the federal money, you have to capture your meth 245ann incredibly volatile and dangerous Greenhouse Gas and i was inspired to this by testimony from a new jersey suer district who said we had to rebuild the system. We rebuilt it to capture the methane. Electricity is really expensive in new jersey. We generate all the electricity we need and sell it on to the grid which minimize their need to raise rates for rate payers. Thats pretty darn common sense. Why not do that . Why not capture . So thats the one proviso if you take these new federal funds and partner, youll hear more about other aspects of the bill from mr. Pallone and also, i want to say this bill has a strong emphasis on areas, minority areas, disadvantaged areas. Habitually poor areas in rural america. A new, there are many new programs that will target those areas. Will also target transit to serve people so they can get to job centers if theyre low or lower income. Experiment with zero fare programs and other things. This is the most transformtive and consequential transportation infrastructure bill bigger than my committee. In the history of the United States of america. And everything we have done so far, the three, four bills weve passed on covid, theyve all blood pressu been mitigation for economic harm. We were somewhat successful in the c. A. R. E. S. Act. The heroes act is incredibly important but those are all mitigation programs to stem the individual harm, the community harm, the business harm and what we need now is to begin to look forward to a Brighter Future that is the recovery package. Were going to need a lot of jobs. When we come out of this. A lot of jobs arent coming back. And were going to be in something that looks a lot more like the Great Depression than the great recession. And so were going to need these jobs and these are not just construction jobs. Theyre jobs in design. Theyre jobs in engineering. Theyre jobs in manufacturing. Theyre jobs in high technology. Theyre jobs for small business. Theyre jobs for disadvantaged minority business enterprises. The impact of investing in infrastructure has the greatest Multiplier Effect of any federal dollar ever spent and the strongest by american requirements of any part of the federal government and Even Stronger in this bill, way stronger than the pentagon, they should shape up, we are going to produce all of those jobs here in the United States of america and put millions to work in good paying, high paying, benefit y paying jobs. Thank you very much, mr. Chairman. Wow, were so excited about this legislation and as the distinguished chairman said, we started it with the coronavirus with meeting Emergency Needs then moved on to mitigation. We still have to do some of those things and now move on to recovery. The person whos been there every step of the way with meeting Emergency Needs, the mitigation, mitigation, mitigation and now on ward to recovery as a distinguished chair of the ways and Means Committee, mr. Neil. Thanks, speaker. Thanks for your perseverance on this issue. I was delighted that dr. Difa o difazio, one of the most knowledgeable people ive met, its so important here and his explanation was superb for those of us who are institutionalists. When chairman come up and talk about these issues with great detail. But also a reminder here today that peter mentioned the eisenhower federal highway act. A republican president , lyndon johnson, was the majority leader and sam ray burn was the speaker. Infrastructure used to be the easiest thing to do in congress. And we used to annually do something about infrastructure so decades have now gone by where theres not been a major investment. Every conversation ive had with secretary mnuchin, which is generally weekly, ends with a conversation about infrastructure. Hes queried me time and again about how it works, the patterns work, how the funding proceeds, but he has said were in. And i want to point out that this is about efficiencies and connectivity and productivity. We also think as the speaker described it, were in the stage still i think of relief, instability and move to recov y recovery. What bet rer way as the chairman zib described to move to recovery with the efficiency he has embraced based on infrastructure. So weve witnessed these investments go by the wayside. Everybody in america knows whats happened to infrastructure. No matter where you go. The delays are unbelievable. No matterer where you try to travel. There are gates out here in washington. Some of you have traveled through. Its unbelievable. Like somebody blows a whistle and everybody starting runs toward the designated area. The moving forward act is an immediate solution. Ways and Means Committee, i want to thank if staff. For more than a year, they have worked on this. The ways and means attributed many provisions. I want to thank peter in particular for including my language or real transportation. Connecting boston to worcester to springfield to pittsfield. We used the model of what happened with stimulus money. New haven, hartford to spring fooeld on north south. This would be east west. 12 more trains a day. 60 more trains a day from new haven to hartford. Thats what you can do with this sort of investment. On the tax front again, on the renewables, its extraordinary what weve done. And weve provided details as to how we would best do it. Hes also included 100 billion. I know frank has been interested in that. Jim clyburn has been interested in that, but for central and western ma, at my request, peter included that as well. This is the most robust infrastructure package to deal with again, the renewable issue that has ever been made in congress. This is the largest tax investment in combatting Climate Change again that congress has ever made on the renewable front and ive always been a believer in senting certain behaviors and what better way to do that than through attacking Climate Change, imbracing the renew bables and putting millions and millions of americans back to work. Ive also been in conversation with my governor who shares my point of view on this. We talked about it last sunday. I told him it was coming and to be ready to say some good things. He said he was going to do it because hes a believer so to the speaker and to peter, really, a word of acknowledgment and recognition. Ive sat through these meetings with peter. The two of us have winked and nodded and given each other high fives. Were here, so thanks, speaker, and thank you chairman. Thank you and as mr. , two distinguished chairman know with the Interest Rates where they are now, theres never been a better time for us to go dig. To think big as the head of the fed has said to us. Think big. With us a person whos been with us through the emergency and the mitigation and now the recovery, mr. Pallone. He has the health piece in here. Issues that relate to infrastructure, broad band, for so many reasons, i yield to distinguished chair with gratitude. Thank you. Well, thank you, madame speaker, and let me thank you for your leadership as we work to finalize the moving forward act and i know that youve always stressed that we need to do infrastructure and how it would jumpstart our economy, stimulate the economy, particularly now more than ever in the aftermath of covid and the many jobs that weve lost as a result of the pandemic and i also want to thank my two chairs as colleagues. Obviously neil, whos been working on infrastructure for so long. Peter, thank you for all you do, not only on this bill, but for mentioning new jersey as the innovation state. Thank you. Im going to talk about the provisions that come from the energy and Commerce Committee. And first, i want to talk about investing in clean energy. The bill, the bill has basically help us rebuild our economy with a 70 billion investment in clean energy. Our subcommittee on energy had a hearing earlier this week. We heard from former secretary monise about the fact that covid has wiped out more than 600,000 clean energy jobs. And you know, the bottom line is that we were moving forward with trying to encourage renewables and clean energy jobs, but many of them have been wiped out by the pandemic. And so thats a particular reason why we have been we have to move in this area of clean energy jobs. And as peter mentioned, this is about Climate Change and taking action against Climate Change so this investment will basically let us upgrade the electric grid to accommodate more Renewable Energy to make the grid more resilient. Facilitate the deployment of sustainable Infrastructure Projects around the country and invest in Energy Efficiency so i really want to stress that this is a clean energy, green bill. We also have the development of a National Electric Vehicle Charging Network that stimulates job growth in the ev industry and addresses the need for lower Greenhouse Gas pollutants coming from cars and trucks. The pandemic has put a spotlight on how critical it is to have k access to clean, safe water. So the bill invests over 25 billion in Drinking Water program around the country and as has been already been mentioned, a major investment in broad band. I dont think i have to tell anybody obviously im here talking to you virtually, that the covid pandemic has demonstrate d the need to ensur that families across the country have access to high speed internet. So the moving forward act provides over 100 billion to fund broad band related programs, which will get us to 100 coverage. If there was an fcc report that came out i believe two years ago that said that if you spent somewhere near this, actually a little less, that you would be able to have broad band connections for all the underserved areas under the country. But i also want to stress that we have specific dollars not only to, not only this 100 billion used to connect the underserved areas of the country, but there are specific programs so that kids and individuals who you know need access to the internet r for their educational needs, will be able to, will be able to connect. That they can connect individually in their house. And we also have 12 billion to upgrade that or part of it to upgrade our frail 911 infrastructure for the new generation because if people need to get in touch in an emergency, oftentimes, that system is not up to snuff and lastly, i wanted to Mention Health care. Obviously weve seen that our Health Care Infrastructure in the aftermath of covid or while the pandemic continues, is in need of major infrastructure overhaul as well. Many hospitals closed. Many need to upgrade their infrastructure or build new wings so we have 30 billion for Health Care Infrastructure including money for hospitals, specifically 10 billion for Community Health centers. Something jim clyburn has always been particularly concern ed about as well as our labs and our health services. Anyone goes to some Indian Health clinics around the country, have been to any of them, a lot of them are sorely in need of infrastructure upgrades, so the moving forward act just moves our nation forward. As the name says and im so proud to be a part of it with my fellow chairs and most importantly, our speaker who has been such a major fakctor in moving forward on this for a long time now. Thank you again, nancy. I thank you for all that is there. They say the energy and Commerce Committee if the sun sunshines on it, it falls under the jurisdiction of the energy and Commerce Committee so that was a broad swath of issues that chairman pallone addressed. I mentioned the post service pieces. I want to mention the chairman of the Natural Resources committee substantial park piece of that is in the legislation as well and now, a very major part of the legislation is what we do for education for our children. Im so pleased that virtually, we will be joined by the distinguished chair of the education and labor committee, that person fighting every single day for americas children, mr. Scott. Thank you, thank you, Speaker Pelosi and thank you for your hard work and dedication on all of the issues, especially infrastructure and i want to thank our other chairs for their leadership and know i speak for students, parents and educators across the country when i say how important it is for our Nations Schools to be included in this sfinfrastructure packag. Even before the pandemic, the chronic neglect for americas Public Schools r forced teachers and students to learn and work in hazardous school buildings. In 2017, the American Society r for Civil Engineers gave our Nations School infrastructure a grade of d plus. Now as we confront the covid19 pandemic, our failure to make necessary investments in infrastructure could prevent schools from reopening safely. Theres guidance to School Districts, the cdc advises that insuring ventilation systems operate properly is the key consideration for schools seeking to reopen. But earlier this month, the Government Accountability Office Released an Office Finding that four in ten School Districts need to update or replace vennlation and airconditioning systems in at least half of their school buildings. The reopen and rebuild america schools act, which is included in the infrastructure package, would make necessary investments to help School Districts to open safely. Hr 2 invests 100 million in the next five years targeted to schools with facilities that pose health and safety risks the students and staff. In response to the pandemic, funding for the first year will be expedited to states so they can prioritize schools that are least prepared to meet Public Health and reopening guidelines. This legislation is particularly important given the unprecedented budget shortfalls facwealthier School Districts are more likely to find funds, the high poverty schools are left to rely on state funding, it was already in short supply before the pandemic. Everybody wants to open schools as soon as possible. But the Health Disparities we have witnessed during the pandemic will continue to worsen if low income students are forced to return to schools that cannot afford to comply with Public Health guidance. Passing this legislation not only helps students get back to school, it will help workers get back to work by creating 1. 9 million new jobs over the next five years. This infrastructure package moving forward act is a critical step to towards helping our xhirn and economy to recovering from the pandemic. The work youve done on this legislation and madame speaker, i now yield back as the students will be much better off in the next generation, better educated, because of this legislation. Thank you very much, mr. Chairman, for your great leadership and now, well hear from madame chair, maxine wa waters, chair of the National Services committee. Throughout this coronavirus crisis, she has been there, whether its helping with Small Businesses, small banks, and now with housing with renters et cetera. Throughout the whole crisis. But also the culmination of many years of leadership on the issue of housing in our country. Welcome. Thank you so much, Speaker Pelosi. This is an exciting moment in the history of this country as we embark on an infrastructure piece of legislation known as moving forward, the moving forward act, and it par tends for us the creation of millions of jobs. With certainly coming out of this pandemic is going to provide all of the jobs that are necessary, i believe, to get us back on the track of a strong economy. I want to thank representative difazio for his tough focused leadership. Hes done a great job in helping us to put together the kind of legislation that will meet the concerns not only by our constituents, but of all of the members who have had advice about what should happen. But i really want to thank sp k Speaker Pelosi because i want to tell you that housing and maybe education were not considered in the traditional definition of infrastructure. But she listened and shes led the way to ensure that we have a definition that includes not only education, but housing and im very pleased. Im very pleased at this very important piece of legislation, the moving forward acting for o Nations Housing infrastructure and i have proposed this legislation that i think will get us on the road to having the kind of response to our housing crisis that so desperately need it. Just as we need to invest in our nations roads and bridges, its also b absolutely essential that we invest in our nations Affordable Housing. Every state in the nation has a shortage of housing that is affordable for the lowest income families. The pandemic crisis that we are currently experiencing has xersxers exacerbated matters where millions of americans across the country have lost their jobs and struggling to make ends meet. Communities of color continue to suffer disproportionately from the virus and the resulting economic damage. This legislative package includes my bill, housing is infrastructure act. What could make much needed investments in our nations Affordable Housing infrastructure to create or preserve approximately 1. 8 million affordable homes. The creation and preservation of this housing will create jobs throughout the country and create revenue with state and local governments, which will go a long way to help our economy recover from the continuing Economic Impact of the pandemic. The package includes 70 billion to address the Capital Needs backlog for almost 1 million Public Housing loans. 1 billion to fully address the critical needs backlog for approximately 14,000 section 515 and 514 rural homes. 1 billion to support mitigation efforts that could protect communities from future z disasters and reduce federal funding. 5 billion of the Housing Trust fund to support the creation of nearly 60,000 new units of housing that would be affordable to the lowest income households as well as other important, Affordable Housing investments. So again, i would like to thank Speaker Pelosi for her leadership and for working so closely with chairman difazio and all of us who chaired these committees and had so much that we wanted to see included. I thank them for putting this entire legislative package together and i look forward with consideration by the house. Thank you very much and i yield back. Thank you very much for your great leadership and for your concern about meeting the Housing Needs for the American People. I started on the housing subcommittee when i came to congress, so i know full well, i can appreciate madame chairs leadership on this issue. Because the Chairman Committee cannot proceed without the chairman, we only have time for one question from mr. Difazio if anyone has a question. Yes, sir, then i have one for you. Thank you. Two quick questions. I have to be back. R more for mr. Neil then if we could do one for me because i have a time in my committee. Anybody have one for me . Thank you, chairman. I would like to ask about red tape. What are the, the u. S. Businesses had concerns about lengthy permanent process. How do you plan to address the process in Infrastructure Projects . Thank you. Oh, oh. Yes, thank you, thank you. Actually, we adopted substantial reforms in both map 21 about a decade ago and in the fast act five years ago. The department of transportation has yet to fully implement and or utilize that streamlining. We have reached a point where 93 of federally funded highway projects and transit projects go forward with you know, with the environment al exception. 4 go through a relatively simple process and despite what some say all the delays are due to environmentalize, 3 are so large and have such an impact, many of them very controversial, that they go through a full leap of process. National, environmental, policy act. The Trump Administration would like to eliminate the national nepa. They cant. And its not necessary in order to facilitate infrastructure. An amendment was offered by one of the republicans saying well 60 of those projects, which would be 1. 8 of all federally funded projects, i have to go through a full nepa process. Yes, they do. And some are incredibly controversial. Theres been one pending for 20 years in california. Its never going to get built. They want to build a new freeway to the coast going through orange county. Not going to happen, but theyll quote oh 20 years in the making. No, its not going to happen. In my own state, in portland in the rose quarter, you know, our state Transportation Commission tried to short circuit the process and move through massive opposition from all those impact ed from individuals to businesses and others and then they agreed yeah, okay, we better go through the full process, which actually involves public involvement and input and ultimately litigation, which will delay things. So at this point, there are no new changes. We want d. O. T. To go ahead and implement all the ones weve already made. Any other quick question on surface or anything in my committee . All right. Thank you. Thank you very much. One thing, you talked about time. He does save time. He gets right to the point. Thank you, mr. Chairman. Good luck. The rest of the if its very easy to talk about what you want to spend money on but how much are the pay fors figured out at this point . What percentage of money will be totally off set by new revenues and what will be we propose private activity bonds. Borrowing based upon what jay powell independeicated in the n couple of weeks, that Interest Rates are going to stay where they are, not almost at zero for years to come. And the president as you know, has said 2 trillion of borrowed money. He staked out that position so we think that on the revenue side, were open to discussions and negotiations but with build america, and some borrowing, we think by putting out our plan here, time to have the conversation, time to negotiate it. Thanks, speaker. The chairman has to get back to the order of the day. Thank you very much. For making this such a green piece of legislation. Thank you all very much. Did you have a question . How do you anticipate working with the senate on this . President trump has also promised some money to chairman neil. I know his conversations with secretary mnuchin are ongoing. How do you see this passing from the house to the senate . Well we, as was indicated by mr. Neil earlier, infrastructure legislation has never really been partisan. Weve also worked together to create jobs, to promote commerce, to preserve our plan and the rest. And have clean air, clean water for our children, work in a very bipartisan way and we hoped we would do that now. As you know, the grim reaper has said nothing ever going any place in the senate, but there is tremendous in the country in rebuilding the infrastructure. Theres tremendous interest among individual members about how we move forward and how it affects their areas and when they see the legislation and people see how it does affect their areas because this is not just a matter of transportation. Its a matter of clean air, clean water, some of these Water Systems are over 100 years old. Theyre made of wood and brick. Want a drik nk of water of that and water so important in sanitation and the rest as we see from covid, the urgency is even more intense now. So we think that this will be nonpartisan. Very bipartisan and we look forward to working together. House and senate, democrats and republicans and with the white house. The president really wants, we understand, he really wants an infrastructure bill. He talks about it. Quite a bit and so now, lets get down to what that means for the 21st century. On conclusion, let me just say that with the coronavirus, so many of the needs have been magnified in terms of f water needs and as mr. Pallone talked about, infrastructure. In terms of telemedicine and distance learning. As mr. Scott talked about and what maxine talked about in terms of the housing issues and how the coronavirus has intensified the need for more Affordable Housing. The list goes on and on and what mr. Graholva has in the bill in terms of parks and the rest, there are so many things that are job create iing, commerce promoting, just as personal as the air our children breathe and the water they drink and recognizing so many issues as justice issues. Environmental justice issues. Transit justice issues. As mr. Difazio said. Transportation, getting people to and from work. Our essential workers depend on that mass transit. So for these and other reasons, we think the American People understand the need. We know in our situation in k california, we had a Big Initiative on the ballot and when people understood what it meant to them and their communities, overwhelmingly, we were successful with our infrastructure there. So again, our hopes are riding on mr. Difazio. He is quite remarkable. A real maestro when it comes to so many subjects including this and to have this many committees shall we say interact with his committee, this is quite a feat. In fact, historic and we will be moving forward because it is so very important for the recovery of our country. With that, lets all move in with the moving forward act. Thank you all very much.
