The Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework referenced in the letter would cost about $1.2 trillion over eight years. The potential price tag on Biden s total infrastructure package reached over $3.5 trillion after he met with senators Monday.
According to a White House fact sheet, the American Society of Civil Engineers gave Texas a C- on its infrastructure report card.
In the letter, the coalition of mayors nationwide urged for two points while the details of the package are developed:
No funding previously signed into law be repurposed or redirected to help pay for new investments in infrastructure
Empowering local decision-makers and committing to more localism by investing through existing systems like the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grants, Community Development Block Grants and Surface Transportation Block Grants
