Surprised Braun isn’t on the list.

Disappointed in Crapo, Grassley, Risch, and Young.

The rest are expected.

Wonder what their states have ear marked.

We better be getting 2 new bridges in the BR area, a loop, a thruway between livingston and ascension, a new bridge in lake Charles, and a new senator.

In addition to a pilot program to determine how the US Govt will track you ...

* $175 million for Alaska (Murkowski) pork projects

* Bipartisan ‘Infrastructure’ Bill Doubles Annual Funding for Commission Run by Manchin’s Wife

* So-Called ‘Infrastructure’ Bill Includes Racial Quotas for Broadband




NOTE: ONLY $110 billion Roads, Bridges, and Major Projects - WE WILL SEE A SEPARATE BILL LATER TO SPEND MORE ON THIS (reauthorization of Highway Bill) - Which should be the TOP item in this bill.

I posted on Toomers MANY times about Tillis. Burr should have been banished for his insider trading.

It is a 2700 plus page bill and I suspect you have no idea what is in it ... I just posted a little.

REAL PATRIOTS would return the unspent money to pay down national debt.

More info on tracking in bill and forthcoming...

"Automakers would then have another two years to comply and implement tech that detects and prevents drunk driving...

While the provision doesn’t dictate what type of tech has to be in these vehicles, industry experts believe that companies developing camera-based driver monitoring systems (DMS) stand to benefit the most."

Rinos to the rescue! They want Biden to succeed and to prevent Trump or DeSantis from winning the Presidency.

Here is a list to YOUR US Senators. If you have time to post this am, you have time to call...

Note: In Alabama, Tuberville office implied he was a no; Shelby office seemed dumbfounded.

$110 billion nationwide for roads and bridges.

Anybody think Louisiana will land more than $2 billion? The Lake Charles bridge alone will cost $800 million. A Baton Rouge bridge would eat up the rest.

Am I to believe the state Legislature will allocate this money for only two projects?

The way I see it, a $3.5 trillion bill likely won't even end up fixing Louisiana's two biggest road problems. This state is a freaking joke, and Bill Cassidy should be publicly tarred and feathered.

The $110 billion for roads and bridges is a joke and should be more. I believe two reasons ... 1) non-conservative Lindsey Graham let the cat out of the bag last week ... there will be yet another bill the reauthorization of US Highway bill. They will tell everybody we need more money for the highways and bridges... and 2) ... or 1b ... most southern states - many with so-called conservatives like Granny in AL - (and I assume others) in recent years passed gas taxes AND are looking at taxing electric vehicles. I suspect they will have matching dollars in the Highway bill to get the needed dollars. THIS WILL BE ON TOP OF ALL THE OTHER SPENDING we are seeing now.

I was just flipping channels and fox is reporting that its a matter of just when, not if, this will pass because they have the votes. We're screwed.
