together to pass a landmark infrastructure bill while paving the way for a biden-defining budge 9th. we'll also have a better sense whether the u.s. could default on its debt for the first time in our history. so, yeah, some days matter more than others. and this is as big as it gets on capitol hill. yes, joe biden's democrats have a razor-thin manager anyone congress. but here's what's really frustrating. we're as close as we have been in a half century to major infrastructure investment and closer than ever to a debt default. for all our divisions, these should be areas that unite us as americans. they have been broad areas of consensus for both parties. forget all the jokes about infrastructure week because this has been a big goal going back decades. >> this bill, which i look forward to signing, will speed the repair of our aging roads, bridges and transit systems. >> the philosophy of this administration to invest in the future, to create new jobs and new opportunities for sustained economic growth.
