Benefits of the Infrastructure Bill – Wealth Daily
The $1 trillion infrastructure package was passed by Congress late Friday evening. This is one of the largest federal investments in infrastructure in decades. This kind of infrastructure package has been long overdue.

This could be a massive step forward into an optimistic future for the U.S. That’s why the Biden administration and companies need to be ready to step up and get the ball rolling.

One of the things that the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act is set on doing is building up a national network of electric vehicle charging stations. This also included funding to increase the nation’s electric grid through upgrading high-voltage transmission lines.
