Issue Date: February 23, 2021
On February 23 NAR sent a letter to Chairman Carper, Ranking Member Capito, and the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works. The letter thanks the legislators for beginning the process to move forward legislation to address our nation’s long-standing infrastructure and transportation challenges. In a post-COVID-19 world, substantial and long-term investments in surface transportation, broadband, and water infrastructure are needed to expand our economy, compete globally and create jobs. The letter urges the Committee to advance meaningful investment in the structures and systems that link our communities, country, and commerce and outlines key priorities and principles to this end.
