President Joe Biden visited the site of a Pittsburgh bridge collapse Friday before promoting the benefits of a bipartisan infrastructure law.
The collapse occurred on the same day that the President visited the area to discuss his infrastructure plan.President Joe Biden’s New Year resolution to spend less time in Washington and more time connecting with Americans became all the more pressing Friday on a presidential trip to Pittsburgh.
With the smell of gas still in the air from the accident, Biden spoke with local officials about what happened and sent a wider message to the country. "I'm going to go out and talk to the public," he said."I'm going to make the case of what we've already done, why it's important, and what will happen if they support what else I want to do."
He also talked about the importance of passing elements of his Build Back Better agenda, the package of health care subsidies, climate change initiatives, subsidized child care and other programs that has stalled in Congress. Looking down on the snowy, broken bridge deck topped with overturned cars, Biden asked about the rescue efforts.
