$1 9T COVID-19 relief package includes billions for capital projects

In a 220-211 vote, the House of Representatives passed the $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief bill, officially known as the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, and presented the legislation to President Joe Biden on Wednesday. The package contains plenty of provisions that will benefit the country in general, such as $1,400 stimulus checks to qualifying individuals, but there are also some that should help out the construction economy. For instance, the Senate s version of the bill added in $10 billion for a Coronavirus Capital Projects Fund, that will pay for state, tribal government and territorial projects that carry out critical capital projects directly enabling work, education and health monitoring, including remote options, in response to the COVID-19 public health emergency. Each state is slated to receive $100 million out of this new projects fund, which they can use for construction and other projects.
