Statement From Governor Kathy Hochul on Passage of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill and Advancing the Build Back Better Agenda

Statement

Date: Nov. 6, 2021
Location: Albany, NY
Issues: Entitlements and the Safety Net Infrastructure

"Congress has made good on its promise to deliver infrastructure funding through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, meaning New York will be able to make critical investments in our roads, bridges, and transit. This funding also helps make our infrastructure more resilient to climate change and will expand access to clean water, supporting New York's economic growth and improving public health.

"I want to thank President Biden, Speaker Pelosi and Congressional leadership for their continued progress on the Build Back Better agenda. With historic levels of funding for the care economy, housing and education, our workforce, and climate, we must also pass this legislation to help New York come back stronger."
