Trump and infrastructure investments Donald Trump has expressed support for infrastructure investments in the U.S., during his time as president. He promoted initiatives aimed at upgrading roads, bridges, airports, and other critical infrastructure. In 2018, he unveiled a $1.5 trillion infrastructure plan focused on spurring state, local, and private investments by providing $200 billion in federal funds. However, the plan relied heavily on non-federal funding, which was met with mixed reactions and faced obstacles in Congress, ultimately preventing it from becoming law.
Now with the Republicans strongly in control, it is more than likely that things will materialize in that front.
Trump’s infrastructure proposals emphasized leveraging private investment and streamlining regulatory processes to expedite projects.
Trump has always expressed support for revitalizing U.S. infrastructure, with a focus on traditional areas like transportation and energy.
