Senate Republicans Consider an Infrastructure Counteroffer

Senate Republicans are reportedly preparing a counteroffer to the White House’s $2 trillion infrastructure proposal. West Virginia Senator Shelley Moore Capito and others in a Republican working group have stated that such a proposal would be in the range of $600 to $800 billion, more targeted in scope— focusing on traditional infrastructure such as roads, bridges, ports, airports, broadband, and water infrastructure— and would be funded by unspecified user fees. 51·çÁ÷ will continue to monitor Congressional activity on infrastructure and surface transportation reauthorization negotiations.
