Trump's Plan for Rebuilding America's Infrastructure
Written by Sandy Williams
The White House released its infrastructure plan this week offering $200 billion in federal funds, far short of the $1 trillion promised during the Trump election campaign.
The plan is to “stimulate” $1.5 trillion in investment over the next 10 years to be accomplished through a combination of incentives, asset divesture and reductions in regulations. The bulk of the funding is to come from states, localities and private investors who are “best equipped to understand the infrastructure needs of their communities.”
