March 31, 2021

Hartford, CT – Today, Rep. John B. Larson (CT-01) released the following statement on President Biden's American Jobs Plan, which he is unveiling this afternoon.

"President Biden's American Jobs Plan is a welcome initiative after years of empty promises of action on infrastructure. The American Society of Civil Engineers has given America's infrastructure a D+ rating. President Biden's proposal will make a significant investment in our nation's infrastructure and create millions of jobs. It will pave the way for projects like Hartford 400 that will transform the region and create jobs through sustainable development.

"It will also make an unprecedented investment in clean energy, by building on the Ways and Means Committee GREEN Act, which modernizes and enhances clean technology tax credits.

"I look forward to working with the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee and the Biden Administration to make this initiative a reality," said Larson.
