Promise & perils of the infrastructure law The promise and perils of the bipartisan infrastructure law 01:51Last November, GOP Rep. Tom Emmer of Minnesota released a statement slamming the passage of the freshly approved infrastructure law he referred to as "President Biden's multi-trillion dollar socialist wish list." Those programs, though, would not have been funded if the infrastructure bill hadn't passed. "Opposition to a spending bill does not always mean opposition to the goal of that spending; opposition to a spending bill can mean opposition to spending that adds to the deficit and is not offset with spending cuts elsewhere," argued a Paul spokesperson. Both voted against the infrastructure law. But Buttigieg said that not being shy would be limited to appearing with elected officials who supported the infrastructure bill on his frequent touring around the country.
