Democrats emerged alongside sitting President Donald Trump with the news that they had conceived plans to spend $2 Trillion dollars on infrastructure over the next 25 years. Both Political Parties have expressed desires to fix the issue of our country's decaying infrastructure, but until now nothing has been done. There is still the issue of how we are to pay for this, which neither party has been able to agree upon. However, Trump is expected to put forth a proposal for the payment method soon. The Infrastructure plan includes improving roads, bridges, and highways and hopes to create better ways to transport clean energy across the country, which could be very environmentally beneficial (even though Trump has shown no love to the environment thus far.)
This excites me, as I have heard very little good political news recently, and the fact that we have been able to agree upon something as a country gives me some hope for our country that I did not previously have. While a great deal about the details remains in question, this is inarguably good news for our country, as both parties have finally agreed upon something that we can use to further benefit our country.
