$3 Trillion Infrastructure and Jobs Plan Coming

Hagerty: Republicans who voted for infrastructure 'put themselves on a path to early retirement'

Sen. Bill Hagerty, R-Tenn., on Saturday criticized Republicans who voted in favor of the bipartisan $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill, which passed in the House on Friday night.

The House vote was 228-206, with 13 GOP lawmakers joining Democrats to vote in favor of the legislation and six progressive Democrats voting against the massive spending package.

"It was very surprising to me to see 13 Republicans basically bail Nancy Pelosi out," Hagerty said on Fox News' "CAVUTO Live" Saturday morning. "She did not have the votes within her own party to do this. We had 13 Republicans that decided to step up and help her in this way, and what they did is put themselves on a path to early retirement."

"What we saw earlier this week was the American public certainly manifest themself in Virginia, spoke out. They repudiated these policies we’re seeing come from the Democrat Party and what’s happening is exactly what I predicted would happen," the senator said, adding that he expected House Speaker Pelosi to "open the door for this massive big government spending program that they’ve now teed up for later in November."

So while we’re handing out the wrath on people who voted for this bill remember it has the word “Bipartisan” in the title and cleared the Senate 69-30. So it’s a much a GOP issue as it is a Dem issue. Just sayin’
Yeah, they just identified who the Rinos are in the house and senate. Any $1.2 Trillion infrastructure bill that only provides $110 Billion for roads and bridges is not really an infrastructure bill.

Glad we got a strong Tennessean in Congress to represent the Volunteer State.
 
I’d like to know, how are you going to afford to drive over those road and bridges, if Biden keeps cutting gas and oil pipelines in America? I know some people now can’t afford to hardly get out anymore. Gas prices under Biden will continue to go up.

Add another $1500-$2000 or more to new vehicle prices.

Something else to break, cause problems and have to be deactivated.

That is ridiculous. You are defining "infrastructure" too narrowly. $66 billion has been designated for railways. $73 billion has been designated for power grids and $42 billion for airports and waterways. That is infrastructure.

Also, is there any doubt that the Republicans in the Senate from purple states who voted against this bill, will try to take credit for the projects in their state that will be funded by it? It's either that or they will retire. Take Pat Toomey from Pennsylvania. He voted against the bill, and his approval ratings plunged. He is basically forced into retirement now. He was going to get killed in the 2022 election and he knew it.

Is there even more infrastructure earmarked or is that it? That's what? $181 billion? What about the other trillion?
 
Random question to all -

Is it fair to write off more state and local taxes, that benefit the state and local governments on federal income taxes? In essence, high tax states can tax you excessively and the federal government bails out local and state government policy choices.

Nope. But that is how high tax states have shifted the burden of their funding policy on low tax states via a federal proxy. And is why you see Dems working feverishly to roll back the SALT reform.
 
This is another ass whipping offense. They need to find out who’s idea it was to put that in the bill and the person that wrote it…. and whomp the bejesus out of them…. Along with all the numbskulls that voted for it

They had to pass it, so we could see what was in it. It's gonna be interesting to see how they attempt to implement it; I'd bet it's a basically unworkable concept that will get destroyed in court. BTW, I like your idea; if we could just "whomp the bejesus out of them", there would be less stupidity going into legislation ... there needs to be real negative consequences for stupidity.

There should be no federal tax write off for state and local taxes. If someone chooses to live in a place with excessive tax burden to pay for liberal ideas, that's on him; we shouldn't support his nonsense.
