DC: President Biden delivers remarks and takes questions in the State Dining Room
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden is stopping by a notoriously dilapidated bridge connecting Ohio and Kentucky to promote his administration’s infrastructure law. The Brent Spence Bridge has long been a symbol of the nation’s aging infrastructure system, with presidents of both parties vowing to fix it. Earlier this week, Biden said, “It’s a giant bridge, man.” The Democratic president added the infrastructure aid would provide “a lot of money” to fix the bridge. A bipartisan group of governors and senators including Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell will be joining Biden in Kentucky on Wednesday. Top administration officials are headlining similar events this week at other major U.S. bridges including in Illinois, Connecticut and California.
