NWRA Urges Senate to Pass Legislation to Fund Infrastructure Deficit

Significantly increase direct federal investments in infrastructure.

Fix chronic challenges and address reoccurring shortages in key federal infrastructure accounts such as the Highway Trust Fund.

Complement and strengthen existing tools, such as municipal bonds, that successfully deliver infrastructure investments at the federal, state and local levels.

Facilitate opportunities for private investment in U.S. infrastructure.

Create efficiencies such as accelerating the federal permitting process, while continuing to provide environmental protections.

Encourage active participation among all levels of government and between public and private sectors without shifting federal responsibilities because no single partner can deliver a well-functioning, national U.S. infrastructure network driven by a long-term vision and funding stability.
