Most presidents would never do this, but Trump is a man of action.
The first three phases of relief came in the form of emergency legislation. Those laws have pumped trillions of dollars into loans, health care, and stimulus checks.
But many on Capitol Hill are talking about a “phase four.” They want to pass more legislation to bring relief to the people most affected by this crisis.
And the president just pitched a unique way we can turn this country around for years to come.
From Twitter:
With interest rates for the United States being at ZERO, this is the time to do our decades long awaited Infrastructure Bill. It should be VERY BIG & BOLD, Two Trillion Dollars, and be focused solely on jobs and rebuilding the once great infrastructure of our Country! Phase 4
President Trump took to Twitter to say he wants Congress to pump $2 trillion into rebuilding our infrastructure.
Citing interest rates at a record zero percent, he says this is the time to do this.
The country has been waiting years to rebuild our crumbling bridges, roads, and communities.
This move will create jobs and restore much of our country.
Some might be surprised that he is pushing for this now. But as an astute businessman—someone who understands the economy—he knows now is the time.
Strike while the iron is hot, as the saying goes.
A move like this will help kickstart our recovery after the crisis is over. Best estimates, right now, say that the pandemic will be on its way out by June.
Why not hit the ground running by pumping trillions into our businesses? Get those city planners, architects, and construction companies working?
It would lead to a cascade of new work. And considering how eager Americans will be to get back to work, we’d see an amazing recovery.
We have nothing to lose, right?
