Those who didn't support the bill represent 21 states, with several citing a report from the CBO that estimated the plan could add $256 billion to the federal deficit.
The state could receive as much as $6 billion for roads and bridges under the plan. Another $677 million would go to public transportation.
The state has an estimated 1,302 bridges that are structurally deficient, and 11 percent of its roadways are in need of repair."This $1 trillion infrastructure bill continues to spend money our country doesn't have—and contrary to lots of Enron-style accounting claims, no, it won't pay for itself," Sasse said in a statement on his vote."Yes, infrastructure is important, but doing it the right way is more important.
"Federal infrastructure spending should be driven by a reasoned assessment of our nation's needs, but this process was driven by Democratic political imperatives rather than necessity," Toomey said in a statement., a Republican who has been a key ally of Trump, still voted in favor of the infrastructure bill, but his Republican colleague, Senator Tim Scott, voted against.
Meanwhile, Senator John Thune voted against the infrastructure package that would provide more than $2 billion for upgrades to roads and federal highways in South Dakota. "Tennesseans are all for legislation focused on roads and bridges, but the Democrat spending spree is far from that," Blackburn said in a statement."The infrastructure bill is not paid for and will take even more money out of Tennesseans' hard-earned paychecks."and John Cornyn, voted against the infrastructure plan, even though their state stands to gain a massive haul from it.
wanted to pass a bill just to fix and expand our roads and bridges, they could have done it with near-unanimous support."Senator Mike Lee, an outspoken supporter of the former president, voted against the infrastructure package, while Republican SenatorUtah would get about $2.6 billion for bridge and highway upgrades, plus $626 million for public transportation.
