Statement by Congressman Kildee on President Biden’s Visit to Michigan

October 5, 2021

FLINT—Congressman Dan Kildee (MI-05), Chief Deputy Whip of the House Democratic Caucus, issued the following statement today after President Joe Biden’s visit to Howell, Mich., in support of a bipartisan infrastructure bill and the Build Back Better agenda:

"It was an honor to join President Biden today in Howell. We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to rebuild Michigan's crumbling infrastructure and cut taxes for Michigan's middle class families, all while making sure that the biggest corporations pay their fair share.

"The President and I are focused on passing legislation that gives working Michiganders greater economic security and opportunity. This includes building electric vehicles right here in Michigan with union workers. The Build Back Better budget also expands Medicare benefits for seniors and gives a huge tax cut to working families with children. Passing a bipartisan infrastructure bill will help to rebuild Michigan's roads, bridges and water systems."
