Rep. Kim Schrier Delivers Huge Win for Washington State with Historic Infrastructure Package

Once-in-a-generation investment will rebuild Washington’s infrastructure and create millions of good-paying jobs

Yesterday, Rep. Kim Schrier delivered a huge win for Washington State by passing President Biden and House Democrats’ wildly popular infrastructure package. The legislation makes game-changing investments in clean infrastructure, significantly expands broadband access, strengthens our climate resilience, and provides millions of Americans with good-paying union jobs.

Thanks to Rep. Schrier, workers and families across Washington can expect a once-in-a-generation investment to fix their crumbling roads and bridges and rebuild their communities to be even stronger.

While extremist House Republicans overwhelmingly voted “NO” on this legislation that a majority of the American people support, Rep. Schrier and House Democrats worked to ensure Congress passed this legislation that will invest not only in our roads, but in the American people, creating thousands of good-paying union jobs in their backyard and growing the economy in a way that works better for everyone.

“Yesterday, Rep. Kim Schrier proved once again that she would keep her promise to deliver meaningful wins for people across Washington state,” said DCCC Spokesperson Johanna Warshaw. “From jobs, to broadband, to clean water, and better roads, workers and families across Washington will feel the effects of this historic investment for years to come, and voters can be proud of the historic work Rep. Schrier accomplished to improve their lives.”
