Comment on After months of delay, the House passes infrastructure bill

Comments

What exactly is in it?

If you add up the numbers at the bottom of the article, it is only about 500B. Is the rest already already allocated infrastructure spending?

good catch; it's $550B in new spending and $450B of renewing infrastructure programs that were going to expire (or have expired since the bill has dragged on)

I don't know what the $450B is though, all the media focus and interest is on the new shiny stuff.
