U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Congressman Andrew Levin (D-Mich.), along with Senator Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.) and Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), this week unveiled the BUILD GREEN Infrastructure and Jobs Act.
Modeled after the U.S. Department of Transportation’s BUILD grant program, BUILD GREEN would invest $500 billion over 10 years in state, local, and tribal projects to jumpstart the transition to all electric public vehicles and rail and help modernize the nation’s crumbling infrastructure, according to Senator Warren’s office.
