Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill
November 5, 2021

WASHINGTON —Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen released the following statement
on the final passage of the bipartisan infrastructure bill.

"The strength of a country’s economy depends on the strength of its infrastructure, and with
today’s vote, we have ensured that the American economy will remain strong for decades to
come. A once-in-a-generation infrastructure bill has been an ambition of policymakers for a
long time. Its passage is an enormous achievement for our country. By modernizing public
transit, rebuilding our bridges and roads, and connecting every home in the country with
broadband, this bill will grow our economy and make it more resilient and sustainable in the
process."
