United States of America - National Infrastructure Bank

This is a Maryland House Joint Resolution (HJ 1), not a bill, urging the U.S. Congress to enact H.R. 4052 - the "National Infrastructure Bank Act." It requests the creation of a $5 trillion national infrastructure bank to finance repairs to roads, bridges, water systems, and broadband, while supporting new projects like affordable housing and high-speed rail. The resolution cites Maryland’s specific infrastructure needs (e.g., 1,595 bridges requiring repair, aging water systems, and traffic congestion costs) as justification for federal action. It does not directly affect Maryland residents or create new state law; it is solely a request to Congress to pass enabling legislation.
