Your
1600 Daily:
Our
infrastructure is broken Years of inaction have
allowed American infrastructure to degrade into a state of
disrepair. With yesterday’s
release of President Donald J. Trump’s Legislative
Outline for Rebuilding Infrastructure in America, the
Administration is committed to reversing this sad course.
Here are the facts:
One
out of every five miles of highway pavement in the
United States is in poor condition.
More
than 50,000 American bridges are rated as
“structurally deficient.”
Commute
times have increased every year since 2009—and
more than 40 percent of urban interstate miles are congested.
Nearly
40 percent of Americans living in rural areas
lack sufficient broadband access.
Lengthy
reviews hold up infrastructure projects for years.
- The American
Society of Civil Engineers estimates that failing to meet our
infrastructure needs will cost us $4 trillion in GDP
and 2.5 million jobs by 2025.
Read
why now is the moment we must fix America’s failing
infrastructure.

“A
Nation’s infrastructure is a measure of its greatness,”
says Gary Cohn
An American
budget Yesterday, White House Office of Management
and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney released the Fiscal Year 2019
Budget for the U.S. Government: “Efficient, Effective,
Accountable: An American Budget.”
“As a nation, we face
difficult times—challenged by a crumbling infrastructure,
growing deficits, rogue nations, and irresponsible Washington
spending,” Director Mulvaney said. “Through this budget
proposal, it is clear that the President and this
Administration are determined to reverse these trends.”
Seven things to know
about the President’s budget:
It
provides for a robust and rebuilt national defense.
It
promotes a healthy American economy.
It
curbs wasteful Washington spending.
It
supports the President’s innovative infrastructure
initiative.
It
secures our porous southern border and strengthens enforcement
of immigration law.
It
keeps our commitment to improving veterans’ health.
- It combats the
opioids epidemic.

Watch: Let the
Games begin Vice President Mike Pence arrived in
South Korea last week with Second Lady Karen Pence to lead the
American Olympic Delegation for the 2018 Winter Games. He
attended the Opening Ceremony in Pyeongchang, South Korea, on
Friday.
The Vice President met
with South Korean President Moon Jae-in ahead of the Games,
discussing how the United States and our global allies will
continue to intensify a maximum pressure campaign on North
Korea until it abandons its nuclear and ballistic missile
programs once and for all.
“We will protect our
peoples. We will defend our freedom. And together, we will
forge a future of security, prosperity, and peace for both of
our nations for generations to come,” the Vice President
said.
