Biden stumps for new infrastructure compromise in Wisconsin

Annie Andersen: HEY EVERYONE  FROM DC I’M ANNIE ANDERSEN  IN–  CHIEF POLITICAL PRODUCER. HERE AT STRAIGHT ARROW.

TODAY –   THE BIG CHEESE IS IN AMERICA’S CHEESE  LAND.

PRESIDENT BIDEN JETTED OFF TO WISCONSIN —  – TO PUSH HIS INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN.

THE LATEST VERSION OF HIS PLAN IS JUST UNDER A TRILLION DOLLARS AND CUTS BACK ON A LOT OF THE EXPANDED INFRASTRUCTURE HE WAS HOPING FOR..

IT FOCUSES ON TRADITIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE.. ROADS BRIDGES PORTS, AIRPORTS- THOSE KIND OF THINGS. 

EVEN SO —  WHILE VISITING A PLANT IN LA CROSSE WISCONSIN BIDEN SAID EVEN THIS ITERATION PROMISES MILLIONS OF NEW JOBS. 

President Biden: “This is the answer for good-paying jobs not just in our biggest cities along the coast, but small towns across the country… a blue-collar blueprint to rebuild America.”

Annie Andersen: WILL THIS THING ACTUALLY HAPPEN?

EVEN AS BOTH SIDES COME CLOSER TO A DEAL —  —  

THERE’S ONE – NOT SO SMALL  – ISSUE.

JUST LIKE IN MY LIFE– THE QUESTION IS HOW TO PAY FOR ALL THE THINGS I WANT. 

THAT’S THE TYPE OF THING THAT KEEPS ECONOMISTS UP AT NIGHT.

THE NONPARTISAN TAX POLICY CENTER SAYS THE ADMINISTRATION WANTS TO PAY FOR MUCH OF IT WITH QUOTE “PIXIE DUST”

WAIT- IF THAT’S A THING, TINKERBELL NEEDS TO BE MY BEST FRIEND.

THE TAX POLICY CENTER GOES ON SAYING THERE ARE TWO WAYS TO RAISE MONEY- CUTTING DOWN ON SPENDING OR RAISING TAXES AND THIS PLAN DOESN’T DO MUCH OF EITHER. 

BUT WITH THE RECENT BRIDGE COLLAPSE IN WASHINGTON DC AND THE COUNTRY AS A WHOLE GETTING A C MINUS GRADE ON INFRASTRUCTURE —   THIS WILL BE A PRIORITY FOR CONGRESS AND THE WHITE HOUSE.
