One Country Project Applauds Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework
WASHINGTON, D.C. – One Country Project (OCP) applauds the announcement of the bipartisan infrastructure framework agreed upon by the Biden administration and lawmakers on both sides of the aisle. The proposed upgrades to our nation’s infrastructure will spur economic growth, accelerate the fight against climate change, and position American farmers and small businesses to compete and win in the 21st century.
“The infrastructure investments outlined in the bipartisan framework are an important step to build back better in rural America,” said OCP co-founder Senator Heidi Heitkamp. “This proposal would shrink the digital divide, deliver clean water in Tribal nations, and boost small-town economies by expanding clean transportation networks that both reduce carbon emissions and connect remote communities to far-away resources. I’m pleased to see lawmakers work in a bipartisan way to develop this framework, and I hope they will continue to execute sustainable policy solutions that lift rural areas and spur economic growth across the nation.”
