WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden plans to tout his $1 trillion infrastructure plan in a stop in the Twin Cities south suburb of Rosemount on Tuesday, the White House announced. The announcement didn’t specify a place or time. The visit will be Biden’s first to Minnesota since becoming president. It is part of a continuing multi-state presidential swing to focus local attention on projects that will flow from the infrastructure bill that cleared Congress two weeks ago that Biden signed into law last week. Minnesota’s share of the $1.2 trillion package is $7 billion. This includes:
> $4.5 billion for Minnesota highways.
> $818 million for public transportation.
> $680 million for water infrastructure.
> $302 million for bridge replacement and repairs.
> $100 million for broadband internet.
> $20 million for wildfire protection.
> $17 million for cybersecurity.
