in government funds from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) has opened a critical opportunity to build towards equity.

For all communities to thrive, no matter their zip code, investments in our roads, transportation, and energy systems must serve all of us –– especially communities of color and low-income communities that have experienced historic disinvestment. The new PolicyLink infrastructure standards are designed to be scaffolding for this future. We must build for the all so that nothing stands in the way of everyone providing a great life for their families.​
