Meeting the InfrastructureImperative
An Aordable Plan to Put Americans Back to Work Rebuilding Our Nation’s Inrastructure
Donna Cooper February 2012
“Our unity as a nation is sustained by ee communication o thought and byeasy transportation o people and goods. Te ceaseless ow o inormationthroughout the Republic is matched by individual and commercial movement over a vast system o interconnected highways crisscrossing the country and joining at our national borders with iendly neighbors to the north and south.ogether, the united orces o our communication and transportation systemsare dynamic elements in the very name we bear—United States. Without them, we would be a mere alliance o many separate parts.” 
— President Dwight D. Eisenhower, February 22, 1955
