Infrastructure Read

You are here

President Trump will unveil his plan to rebuild the nation’s aging bridges and roads. But the big news for the week will be consumer prices.

President Trump will call this week for a $1.5 trillion infrastructure initiative by matching up to $100 billion in funds that states and cities put toward infrastructure projects.

President Trump wants to spend $1.5 trillion on rebuilding roads and bridges, but failing to account for climate change could add to costs later.

President Trump has talked about a huge infrastructure investment, but can we even make the trains run on time? Our beleaguered columnist is skeptical.

Perhaps he will finally take them seriously to impress midterm voters. If so, there are many good ideas to consider.

Don’t let the trillion-dollar price tag fool you. It’s a gift to the Davos class, not the American worker.

The proposal received a cool reception from Democrats, who disagree with the president over how to finance the nation’s ailing roads, bridges and other infrastructure.

He would probably do it the wrong way. But done right, it could be a great idea.

Trump wants to build things. Democrats can help him find a way.

$1.5 trillion of hot air.
