Energy Secretary: ‘Hopefully’ the Second Piece of the Infrastructure Bill Will Happen as Well

EXCERPT:

GRANHOLM: “The president is committed to both pieces of his agenda, so this bipartisan infrastructure plan was one piece and the second piece is going to be the follow-on bill that was the budget resolution was passed late last night or early this morning. And the president is going to be pushing for both. Obviously the Congress is going to figure out what the order and the sequence is and the president respects that. Nancy Pelosi certainly knows what she is doing. So, it is a big deal. I think we’re going to have support for this in the House. It’s the first step. It’s got to be passed by the House. That is going to happen. And -- and hopefully the second piece happens as well.”
