What Infrastructure Bill?

July 22, 2022 – It seems our industry needs to do a much better job of communicating the benefits we bring to society. A new Impact Research poll finds that less than one-quarter of voters are aware that the infrastructure bill passed Congress and was signed into law. An astonishing 76% think the bill never passed Congress or don’t know whether it passed or not. While voters express high levels of support for the deal once they hear about it, only 24% of voters think the bill is law. Meanwhile, a plurality (37%) says they “don’t know” the status of the bill, 30% say “it is still being worked on in Congress but isn’t law yet,” and 9% believe it is not being worked on in Congress and will not be passed. Time to get loud and proud.
