Pelosi Statement on Passage of Bipartisan Infrastructure Package
AUGUST 10, 2021 PRESS RELEASE
Washington, D.C. Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued this statement after the Senate passed its bipartisan infrastructure package:
Today is a day of progress, as the Senate has passed the bipartisan infrastructure package and paved the way for not only rebuilding but reimagining our infrastructure for the 21st Century Economy.
The leadership of President Biden has seized this once-in-a-century opportunity to Build Back Better for our country. This bipartisan package helps rebuild the middle class as it rebuilds our infrastructure creating good-paying American jobs and turbocharging American competitiveness and growth.
The House will continue to work with the Senate to ensure that our priorities For The People are included in the final infrastructure and reconciliation packages, in a way that is resilient and will Build Back Better.
