Senate Republicans Answer Biden Administration 'Infrastructure Plan' with Less Expensive Proposal

A group of Senate Republicans unveiled their answer to President Biden's $2.5 trillion "Infrastructure" package on Thursday, with a much more modest price tag.

The GOP plan amounts to $585 billion over a five-year period, and boasts a "Forward leaning vision." The effort to match the Biden administration with real infrastructure plans is led by GOP Senator Shelley Moore-Capito, with Sens.

The lawmakers made clear that the Republican-led plan is strictly focused on traditional infrastructure.

Senate Republicans are for real infrastructure - roads, bridges, highways, and cleaner water.

President Biden claimed that he hoped to pass the hefty infrastructure package proposed by Democrats with at least some Republican support, but the American Rescue Plan in its current form is unlikely to gain support from any Senate Republicans.
