President Joe Biden on May 28 unveiled a whopping $6 trillion budget proposal, which includes billions for provisions to boost transportation infrastructure.
The budget, proposed for fiscal 2022 spending, will be considered by Congress, which actually sets the budget.
During a press conference May 28, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said the proposal covers subjects that get a lot of “sizzle,” such as automation technology, as well as topics that are sometimes considered “unsexy but profoundly important.”
