BREAKING: Apparently tired of all the Republicans taking credit for a bill they voted against, the White House announced that they’re putting President Biden’s name on hundreds of thousands of signs for infrastructure projects across the country.
“PROJECT FUNDED BY PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN’S BIPARTISAN INFRASTRUCTURE LAW.”
It’s about time, amirite?
The Montgomery Locks and Dam near Pittsburgh is in the midst of a $857 million upgrade to ensure water levels in the Upper Ohio River are high enough for large cargo ships to pass through.
On a grassy roadside nearby, a white sign announces who’s behind the work: “Project funded by President Joe Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.”
For Biden, taking credit for an improving economy — including the jobs and growth made possible by the trillion-dollar public works law — has become a political imperative, one that will help determine whether he is reelected to a second term next year. Even as Democrats relish a recent hot streak of positive economic data, they acknowledge it won’t benefit Biden politically unless voters begin to associate him with the improvements.
The White House office responsible for the infrastructure signage says there will be hundreds of thousands of signs claiming credit for projects made possible by the 2021 law, many of which are just now getting started. The same sign is posted near a road improvement project in Wisconsin and a border crossing in Arizona. Even where the work isn’t obvious, there are signs. At a large empty field in Montana, a sign announces a Superfund site is being cleaned up thanks to the law. ...........................

19. In my red rural VA county . . .
. . . there are folks still on dial-up internet service. A few areas have fiber optic with broadband.
As soon as the infrastructure money was released, crews showed up running fiber down every road in the county, putting connection drops are every driveway. By the end of this year every residence and building in the county will have fiber within 100 feet except for a few with long driveways. The company providing broadband service already is being overrun with installation orders.
Then, our Republican Congressman Rob Wittman -- who voted against the infrastructure bill -- showed up in his hard hat and safety yellow vest taking credit for everything.
We need several of those signs.
