Creating Jobs & Prosperity: Infrastructure Investment

​

• Invest in improvements to meet climate goals:  public transportation upgrades, a national electric grid & storage, and vehicle charging stations.

• Invest in infrastructure improvements to support public health and quality of life in all communities: clean water systems, safer roads, bridges and public transportation, and universal broadband access.

• Support and expand public education through improved child care, preschools, vocational training, and community colleges.
