Maddy summaryThis resolution is a non-binding statement from the Rhode Island House of Representatives that strongly supports a specific bill, H.R. 4052, introduced in the U.S. Congress. The bill seeks to create a National Infrastructure Bank to provide up to $5 trillion in financing for infrastructure projects across the United States. Proponents argue this funding would help repair aging systems like bridges and roads without requiring new federal taxes or increasing the national debt. The resolution itself does not change any laws or allocate funds but serves to urge the U.S. Congress to pass the underlying legislation.
