Releases New Myth v. Fact Document
With misinformation in the public sphere about the $1.2 trillion Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill (formerly titled the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act), AGC has produced a myth versus fact document—click HERE—to help correct the record. The AGC co-chaired Transportation Construction Coalition (TCC) recently took issue with a “fact sheet” put forth by House Republican leadership that included several misrepresentations. In addition, the TCC shared its consternation with the House Democrats’ Progressive Caucus delaying a vote on the bipartisan infrastructure bill. You can find an overall AGC summary of the bipartisan infrastructure bill HERE. Additionally, a breakdown of what’s in the bill for each construction market can be found here: Highway Contractors; Utility Contractors; Direct Federal Contractors; Building Contractors; and Other Markets (Transit, Rail, Waterways, Airports).
