Mullin Opposes "Infrastructure" Package

Statement

Date: Nov. 5, 2021
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Transportation Budget, Spending and Taxes Infrastructure

Congressman Markwayne Mullin (OK-02) released the following statement after voting no on the $1.2 trillion "infrastructure" package.

"Socialism is not infrastructure," Mullin said. "Only $110 billion of this package will go towards improving actual infrastructure, like roads and bridges, and Oklahoma would only receive a small fraction of that money. Roughly 90 percent of this package will go to socialist projects and Green New Deal spending that guarantee inflation and debt for generations to come. I will not support funding for policies that drive our country into socialism."
