The president made the trip to declare that America is now healthier than ever after it has recovered from the coronavirus pandemic, a severe but brief recession, and the coronavirus pandemic. This is a vital message, as polling shows that many voters are uneasy about the future and Biden’s economic leadership. Inflation has surpassed the job gains made during his tenure.
Biden stated, “We are the only country that I believe has emerged stronger from every crisis than we entered.” Literally, stronger than when we entered. This is the story of the country’s journey.
Biden arrived at the state’s only deep-water harbor. This made it an important way station for home heating oil and fiberoptic cables. It also provided access to rock gypsum which is used in making drywall. New Hampshire voters will be facing Democratic Senator Maggie Hassan this year, as she seeks another term. The administration is trying to protect her seat, which is a stronghold for Democrats in an evenly divided Senate.
The $1 trillion infrastructure law will allow $1.7 million to be used for dredging the harbor’s shipping channel basin and basin. Already $18.2 Million has been spent by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to make it easier to access the harbor by larger ships. This project is intended to lower delays and increase prices for consumers.
The law provides $17 billion to upgrade port facilities during a time of international supply chain disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The law also includes $17 billion for infrastructure investments, such as the replacement of lead water pipes and the construction of broadband internet. It also covers projects to combat climate change and repairs and reconstructions of roads and bridges.
“There is so much more to this law. “I’m not going the bore you with all of it, but the important part is there,” Biden said. His speech also touched upon inflation following the pandemic, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine and taxes. He also mentioned prescription drug prices, budget deficit reduction, and taxes.
Biden’s second trip to New Hampshire is as president. After he signed infrastructure legislation November, the state was Biden’s first stop. He spoke in front an old bridge which is overdue for repair.
These types of initiatives have been repeatedly highlighted by the president as part of his ambitious agenda to improve education, social services, and combat climate change.
Biden is keen to convince voters that his top achievement is making concrete progress after years and years of promises made by President Donald Trump. He never signed any infrastructure spending deals.
