Bidenâs infrastructure plan is bold, but itâs also confusing.Â
On March 31, the president unveiled one of the most extensive renovation packages since the Federal Aid Highway Act of 1956. From a distance, it seems like an excellent idea; until you take a look at whatâs in it.Â
Infrastructure has a muddled definition that a lot of people disagree on. Some say itâs roads, bridges, buildings, etc., but a social scientist would argue that it also encompasses public structures like hospitals, schools and public housing. Regardless, Bidenâs proposal is undoubtedly one of the boldest plans to ever hit the floor of the Senate.Â

WASHINGTON (Reuters) â Democratic U.S. lawmakers, including Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Ed Markey, on Tuesday reintroduced their âGreen New Dealâ resolution, their set of aggressive climate goals intended to transform the U.S. economy.
Initially introduced in 2019, the non-binding resolution seeks to eliminate U.S. greenhouse gas emissions within a decade and transition the economy away from fossil fuels.
âFor so long, our movement toward a sustainable future has been divided with really just this false notion that we have to choose between our planet and our economy. And we decided to come together in sweeping legislation that not only rejects that notion, but creates a plan for 20 million union jobs in the United States of Americaâ in several sectors, Ocasio-Cortez said at a news conference.
