Utility University: The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act is currently making its way through Congress. The $1 trillion plan that was passed by the United States Senate on August 10th, includes $550 billion in new federal investments in America’s infrastructure over the next five years, including money for roads, bridges, public transportation, water and sewer and broadband upgrades. The Act is intended to help communities across the U.S. grow and sustain their economies, create jobs and enhance community resilience.
