On Jan. 29, U.S. Rep. Julia Brownley (D-Westlake Village) announced the release of the Moving Forward Framework, a five-year, $760 billion investment in infrastructure that would create 10 million jobs and address some of the country’s most urgent infrastructure needs.

From addressing the massive maintenance backlog to designing safer streets, the framework would bolster the federal government’s role in order to help communities around the country undertake transformative projects that are smarter, safer and made to last.

“It is long past time we make critical investments to fix America’s crumbling infrastructure. This framework is a jumping-off point that will revitalize our economy, fix our country’s crumbling roads, bridges and transit systems, and create good-paying jobs while addressing the climate crisis in the process,” Brownley said.

The Moving Forward Framework outlines major investments, including those in highways, rail and transit systems, airports, ports and harbors, wastewater and drinking water infrastructure.
