Washington CORE interviewed Norman Anderson, Chairman and CEO of CG-LA Infrastructure about the infrastructure outlook under the Biden administration. The discussion explored the political considerations surrounding Biden’s ambitious proposal, the American Jobs Plan, as well as an unprecedented amount of funds for infrastructure development from the leftover coronavirus stimulus.
