They believe this is a marathon, not a print and ultimately the higher spending will help more americans than hurt them. Citing a private white house poll, democratic lawmakers are encouraged to focus on how the president s $3 trillion infrastructure plan helps working families by lowering costs and getting people back to work or maybe helping the economy. The consumer price index measures what people pay for goods increased 5% from a year ago. The president is counting on a bipartisan infrastructure plan to help the economy.
