Relative to a normal "highway bill" how is BIF different? — A lot of money to non-transportation stuff (electrical grid, environmental cleanup, water pipes, broadband) — A more generous funding split for transit. — A bunch of money for Amtrak https://t.co/2HGLk6Gtfe — PolitiTweet.org

Attitudes toward the Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework are mostly driven by considerations related to legislative tactics, but BIF is interesting on its own terms — much more money than the FAST Act with a much lower share of it going to highways. https://t.co/2HGLk6Gtfe — PolitiTweet.org

A big concern of mine is that Amtrak's plan for that cash infusion seems to be to just waste the money. The good news is the Department of Transportation is aware of this problem and are actually controlling the purse strings. https://t.co/R5uWFirYkV — PolitiTweet.org
