H.R 3684, the “U.S. Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act,” will potentially:
Repair and rebuild roads and bridges. We could expect to receive $25.3B for federal-aid highway apportioned programs and $4.2B for bridge replacements and repairs over 5 years.
Improve sustainable transportation options. We could receive $9.45B to improve public transportation across the State over 5 years.
Build a network of EV Chargers. We could expect to receive $384M over 5 years to support expanding EV charging networks, and also have the opportunity to apply for $2.5B in grant funding dedicated to EV charging.
Connect all Americans to high-speed internet. We will receive a minimum allocation of $100M to help provide broadband coverage across the State and provide access to those who lack it. Over 10M Californians will be eligible for the Affordability Connectivity Benefit to help low-income families afford internet access.
Improve our infrastructure to better prepare for the impacts of climate change, cyber-attacks & extreme weather. We can expect $84M over 5 years to protect against wildfires and $40M to protect against cyber-attacks. Californians will also benefit from the bill’s $3.5B national investment in weatherization which will help reduce energy costs for families.
Improve the nation’s airports. We will receive approximately $1.5B for airport infrastructure development over 5 years.
Note: The numbers reflected above are current estimates and may change over the course of the five-year period.
