Congress finds that— 
(1) roads, bridges, airports, and urban trans-
portation systems are essential to the economic and 
national security of the United States; 
(2) there is a chronic shortfall in funding for 
the maintenance of highways, bridges, and other 
critical infrastructure; 
(3) strategic investments in new infrastructure 
will allow for economic growth and dynamism in the 
21st century; 
(4) there has been a marked increase in ex-
treme weather events and the negative impacts of a

changing climate are expected to worsen in every re-
gion of the United States; 
(5) if left unaddressed, the consequences of a 
changing climate have the potential to adversely im-
pact the health of all Americans, harm the economy, 
and impose substantial costs on local, State, and 
Federal budgets; 
(6) efforts to reduce climate risk should protect 
our Nation’s economy, security, infrastructure, agri-
culture, water supply, public health, and public safe-
ty; and 
(7) there is bipartisan support for pursuing ef-
forts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through 
economically viable, broadly supported private and 
public policies and solutions.
