Infrastructure Crisis Looming in America

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Pennsylvania Governor Edward Rendell and California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger recently formed, Building America’s Future, a non-partisan coalition of state and local elected officials from across the country who are advocating for greater federal investment in infrastructure. 

Mayor Bloomberg in his weekly radio address recently stated, “talking about infrastructure doesn’t make for great headlines, but it is one of the most important issues facing our country – and, make no mistake about it: we are facing a national infrastructure crisis.”
