Statement: Current $3 Trillion Proposal Does Not Go Far Enough, Biden Administration Must Be More Aggressive to Build Back Better

Washington, DC – Today, ProsperUS, a coalition of more than 75 major progressive labor, grassroots, movement, faith-based, and policy organizations at the state, local, and national levels, released the following statement today in response to the Biden administration’s $3 trillion draft proposal of the next infrastructure bill:

“The current draft proposal of $3 trillion does not go far enough in rebuilding our broken economy and meeting the critical needs of the climate, caregiving, racial injustice, and other crises. The administration needs to be more aggressive in their economic policy proposals to make up for decades of underinvestment and debunked economic thinking that created our fragile and unequal economy,” said Claire Guzdar, ProsperUS campaign manager and spokesperson.
