President Biden’s infrastructure improvement plan is being pitched by members of his Cabinet. Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm said on CNN’s “State of the Union” that a wide majority of Americans support infrastructure spending and hopes the legislation will receive bipartisan support.

“Republicans and Democrats historically have wanted to see infrastructure spending,” says the former Michigan governor.

Granholm says President Biden’s proposed infrastructure plan is very comprehensive.

“It’s the biggest investment in America since FDR, since the New Deal.”

Granholm says while there are sticking points in the proposal, the plan includes the spending on road, bridges, and broadband access that traditionally receive overwhelming support on both sides of the aisle.
