Graves & Comer Request White House Documents on Infrastructure Spending

Washington, D.C., March 3, 2022 | Justin Harclerode (202) 225-9446

f t # e

Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Ranking Member Sam Graves (R-MO) and Oversight and Reform Committee Ranking Member James Comer (R-KY) request for all White House documents and communications related to the $1.2 trillion in taxpayer dollars authorized in the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA).

The Republican lawmakers express concerns the massive and expansive funding creates opportunities for corruption and wasteful spending; steers funding away from traditionally Republican-led states and rural America; and lacks a sufficient, qualified workforce to complete the projects.
