Ernst: “Let’s come together and literally start building some bipartisan bridges.”

WASHINGTON—U.S. Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa), a member of the Environment and Public Works Committee (EPW) that unanimously passed bipartisan infrastructure bills last Congress, spoke on the Senate floor today to continue calling on her Democratic colleagues to work with Republicans on a true infrastructure package. Ernst highlighted the egregious spending on far-left priorities included in the Biden administration’s current proposal, and urged compromise—noting that infrastructure is traditionally a bipartisan issue that should unite both parties.
