President Biden will sign this bill into law on Monday -- and as he might say, it is a BFD. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal is a once-in-a-generation investment that will create good-paying jobs, modernize our infrastructure, turn the climate crisis into an opportunity, and put us on a path to win the economic competition for the 21st century. There's a lot to cover, so read on to learn more about the Biden-Harris agenda and ways you can get involved → A blue-collar blueprint to rebuild America: The Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal What's in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal? Jobs. This historic legislation is a blue-collar blueprint to rebuild America. A majority of these jobs don't even require a college degree. We are going to invest in the health and safety of our communities, tackle the climate crisis, and create opportunity by: Putting pipefitters and plumbers to work replacing lead water pipes so every child and American can drink clean water. Transforming rail, roads, bridges, public transit and modernizing our ports and airports and freight rail. Manufacturing solar panels, wind farms, batteries, and electric vehicles to grow clean energy supply chains we can export to the world. Building out the first-ever national network of charging stations so families can travel coast-to-coast in electric vehicles. Making high-speed internet affordable and available for every household in America. America is getting back to work This week, we learned some promising news about the economy: We've had six consecutive weeks of decline in new unemployment claims. The number of workers losing their jobs is at the lowest level since the pandemic began. Unemployment claims are down 70% since January, when President Biden took office -- and they are falling at the fastest rate since the 1950s. Passing President Biden's Build Back Better plan is critical to continuing our recovery. The Build Back Better Framework will create good-paying jobs and directly lower costs for families by providing more affordable health coverage, child care, elder care, energy, and prescription drugs -- all without raising taxes on those making less than $400,000 or adding to the federal debt. America: Get vaccinated. We have reached a turning point in our battle against COVID-19: After rigorous review, the CDC and FDA recommended a safe, effective vaccine for children ages 5-11. It will allow parents to end months of anxious worrying about their kids -- and is a major step forward in our fight to defeat the virus. The Biden-Harris administration has already secured enough supply for every 5-to-11-year-old child in America. Kids will be able to get a vaccine at one of tens of thousands of locations, including pharmacies, pediatricians' offices, schools, and more.

From repairing roads and bridges to expanding high-speed internet access, this once-in-a-generation investment will strengthen the middle class.
