Buttigieg Launches $1 Billion 'Anti-Racist Roads' Project

Reconnecting Communities

  • Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg announced that the Department of Transportation would be spending at least $1 billion to address so-called "racism" in America's public roads
  • The program will provide financial handouts over the course of five years to predominantly African-American communities across the country
  • "Transportation can connect us to jobs, services, and loved ones, but we've also seen countless cases around the country where a piece of infrastructure cuts off a neighborhood or community because of how it was built"

Even left-wing groups admitted that the concept of "racist" roads was a "fringe idea," but nevertheless praised the Biden Administration for promoting such a conspiracy

  • "Prior to 2021, the idea that we would deal with highway infrastructure that has divided communities was very much a fringe idea," said Ben Crowther, a spokesman for the Freeway Fighters Network. "The Biden administration has really transformed that into mainstream thinking."
