Summary
Communities are facing the overlapping crises of the pandemic, the economic crisis, climate chaos, and chronic racial injustice. We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to rebuild our economy in a way that lifts up all people. Congress’s next big infrastructure bill could invest billions into neighborhoods across the country, ushering the transformative recovery our communities need to thrive.
