Mr. BLUMENAUER. With this $46 billion, added to the bipartisan Senate bill that passed with 74 votes--half the Republicans--we could have a robust reauthorization of the Surface Transportation Act and create hundreds of thousands of family-wage jobs. Not by picking winners and losers, but by going back to the day when we used to work together on a bipartisan basis to fund infrastructure and to help strengthen every community around the country.
Reject this gimmick. If we have an extra $46 billion we're going to borrow, invest it in rebuilding and renewing America--really helping small business and strengthening the environment in every community across America.
