Today, we’re rolling out a guidebook for the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to help state, local, Tribal & territorial governments prepare for this great opportunity to #BuildABetterAmerica. Check it out at Build.gov

The Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act is a historic opportunity for government to advance more equitable and resilient communities.
Congratulations to longtime collaborator @MitchLandrieu for being named Sr. Advisor & Infrastructure Coordinator.

Under my predecessor, infrastructure week was an empty promise.
Now, we’re going to make an infrastructure decade a reality.

@POTUS made a great pick! @MitchLandrieu will ensure the infrastructure money hits the ground, creates jobs, & builds resiliency & racial equity. As he said in his 2010 campaign & proved as mayor, Mitch knows what to do & how to do it. wsj.com/articles/biden-to-na…
Proud to see @MitchLandrieu advance the nation’s infrastructure plan. With years of experience negotiating federal infrastructure funds no one better equipped. wsj.com/articles/biden-to-na…

What we largely need to do” now to adapt is to “undo” mistakes-jackhammer concrete, remove roads & pavement, expand riverbanks, set back from the coast, shift to clean energy. It’s not fancy, it’s not “Dutch” & it’s not expensive but it does require hard choices.

Here’s a more detailed doc with power restoration timeline for New Orleans neighborhoods from @EntergyNOLA 👇 – at New Orleans, LA
While I feel like I’m in Groundhog Day after every disaster in this country with the race to declare “climate change is here” and no real subsequent action- see Katrina, Sandy, Harvey, Maria, etc.- this is a good current rundown by @AnaCabrera 👇🏽

In these dark times, try to remember that there will be a brighter day tomorrow. Remember that there is a higher power that is in control. Your job is to rise to the occasion of being the best person you can be through the peril. You will be a better person for it. @bncnews @wdsu

Honored to have contributed to @CANURB #CityTalk conversations this pandemic year. Reflections on the past year...
We asked more than 100 speakers at our #CityTalk talks to tell us, in a single line, what was the #1 lesson they learned from this pandemic year. #COVID365
Enjoy these #ShortSnappers!

After January 6, I wrote to @nytopinion about how crushing it is to see what it takes to take action. Today, the work begins. We must do more to dismantle white supremacy. nytimes.com/2021/01/19/opini…

Thanks to American voters, we are back in the #ParisAgreement. America is once again poised to lead the world on climate action, working with our allies to build a better future for us all. Time to get back to work!
