CBS: Biden hails legislative victory on infrastructure in New Hampshire
"My message to the people in New Hampshire is simple, it's this — because of this delegation, New Hampshire and America are moving again. Your life is going to change for the better, and that's literal."
— President Biden

Team,
Yesterday President Biden signed into law the bipartisan Infrastructure Investments and Jobs Act, a historic $1.2 trillion investment in the critical repairs and improvements we need for our nation's infrastructure.
Today President Biden joined Chris and the New Hampshire Delegation to talk about how this legislation will invest in our future. New Hampshire is President Biden's "First in the Nation" trip since signing the infrastructure bill.
New Hampshire will see significant benefits from this bipartisan legislation which includes $1.51 billion in funding for highway, bridge, and transit investment. We're proud of the provisions Chris fought to get in the final legislation including:
- Expansions in passenger and freight rail to help states fund rail projects.
- Development of a marketplace for toll credits.
- $150 million to fully fund the Joint Long-Term Storage Act, Chris's bipartisan legislation to bolster our long-term renewable energy storage capabilities.
The historic infrastructure investment would have never passed without Chris and the entire NH delegation's support. Will you add your name to thank Chris and everyone who helped pass this critical bipartisan legislation to invest in our infrastructure?
The bipartisan Infrastructure Investments and Jobs Act is proof of what we can accomplish when we have leaders like Chris in Congress who can come together for a bipartisan solution to the problems we're facing. We're making real progress on real issues that matter across the country and right here in New Hampshire.
This is just the beginning, and Chris will keep fighting to pass legislation that matters to working Granite Staters. Add your name to thank Chris and everyone who helped pass this critical legislation >>
Thank you,
Team Pappas
