WASHINGTON Amtrak announced it would enhance rail service in Connecticut and add new lines across the country after President Joe Biden revealed his infrastructure bill would award the corporation $80 billion over eight years for improvements.
Biden’s American Jobs plan, which he unveiled in Pittsburgh Wednesday, calls for massive spending on transportation, clean energy, school construction, the senior care-giving industry and research and development, paid for by corporate tax increases.

WASHINGTON - Two airline giants said that they would cancel tens of thousands of planned layoffs because of aid earmarked for them in the $1.9 trillion stimulus measure passed by Congress this week, an early sign of job losses averted by the landmark package.
Scott Kirby, CEO of United Airlines, which had warned employees about 14,000 layoffs last month, said in a social media post that Congress s new funding for airlines would allow the workers to receive their paychecks and health care through September.
American Airlines said it planned to rescind notices it sent last month to 13,000 employees about coming layoffs.
