Hillary Clinton Unveils $275B Infrastructure Plan to Help Create Jobs
“To build a strong economy for our future we must start by building strong infrastructure today, and putting you and your members to work”, Clinton said.
Clinton’s proposed infrastructure bank would also administer a renewed and expanded version of the Build American Bonds program would also administer part of a renewed and expanded Build American Bonds program, which was launched as part of the 2009 Recovery Act. “The real reason Hillary Clinton isn’t saying how she’ll pay for her trillion-dollar spending increase is because she knows it means raising taxes on the middle class”. “This is not my first rodeo”. By all accounts, Mrs. Kennedy was an ardent supporter of President Clinton, donating to his campaign numerous times before passing away at the age of 64 in 1994. Clinton recently came out against the pipeline and, as a senator, voted for using military force in Iraq, which she has since called a mistake.
“Get your sledgehammers ready because we have a glass ceiling to demolish”, Walsh told a cheering audience crowded into historic Faneuil Hall.
Walsh said he is endorsing Clinton because he believes she is a champion for children, healthcare and human rights, while possessing the drive and experience to serve as president.
In contrast, O’Malley said the USA should “lead a concerted global effort” against the terrorist network. Iowa and New Hampshire feature less African Americans and Hispanic voters than most Democratic presidential primary and caucus states. Florida remains the biggest swing state on the electoral map and the GOP will have a very rough time winning back the White House in 2016 if Clinton carries Florida.
During her visit, Clinton touted her new jobs plan.
Yes, she said “illegal” – ticking off progressives, who prefer “undocumented”. “We will never quit”.
Clinton has also unveiled a $10 billion substance abuse plan, a $60 billion solar panel plan, and a $30 billion plan to help coal communities. Her campaign said that her infrastructure proposal would be paid for by closing corporate tax loopholes but didn’t detail which breaks would be targeted. And Clinton used the venue as an opportunity to announce her intention to anchor her jobs agenda in infrastructure projects – and the union jobs they create.
Clinton’s campaign cited a recent study that showed the median wages for infrastructure workers, at $38,810 per year, were several thousand dollars higher than the national median for all workers.
Hillary Clinton, the front-runner in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination, will be in Maryland on December 7 for a “conversation” fundraiser at the home of a business executive with ties to Annapolis.
But Warren stands alone in not standing by Clinton. Bernie Sanders of Vermont.
