Biden Stressed Infrastructure Plans During his New Hampshire Visit
Biden visited Portsmouth Harbor in New Hampshire to focus on how the 2021 infrastructure bill can improve shipping and combat inflation
On Tuesday, Joe Biden, the United States President, visited Portsmouth Harbor in New Hampshire to highlight how the 2021 infrastructure bill can improve shipping and help resolve the supply chain disasters of America that became the reason for inflation at a forty-year high. Biden used his strip to say that the U.S. is healthier than ever as it emerges from the COVID-19 pandemic and a short but severe economic collapse.
He also said it is an essential message as voting suggests several voters are doubtful about the future and his economic leadership as high inflation overwhelmed the job gains during his administration. In addition, the destination of President Biden was the only deep-water harbor in the state, making it a severe way station for home heating oil, rock gypsum, and fiberoptic cables for producing drywall.

This year Democratic Senator Maggi Hassan faces New Hampshire voters as she seeks another term. Under the $1 trillion infrastructure bill, $1.7 million will be reserved to dredge the shipping channel and basin of the harbor. In addition, the United States Army Corps of Engineers previously consumed $18.2 million to make it easier for larger ships to access the port. It is a project intended to cut delays that fuel higher prices for consumers.
Infrastructure Package to Overcome Havoc on International Supply Chains
In general, the infrastructure package includes $17 billion to upgrade port facilities at a time when the Coronavirus outbreak caused chaos in global supply chains. Biden reeled off the other investments regarding infrastructure from the law, including projects to control climate change, the replacement of lead water pipes, projects for repairing roads and bridges, and the buildout of a countrywide broadband internet network.

The president’s speech also touched on inflation coming out of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s aggression on Ukraine, the Coronavirus pandemic, prescription drug prices, taxes, and dropping the budget deficit. That was the second Biden’s trip to New Hampshire as president. Additionally, the state was his first stop after the president signed the infrastructure bill in November.
Biden frequently focused on these types of initiatives as his more striving plan to boost social services, climate change initiatives, and education remains delayed. Later this year, with the midterm elections approaching, the president is eager to convince his voters that one of his government’s top accomplishments is making absolute progress after many years of unfulfilled pledges from former Republican President Donald Trump, who never signed any agreement on infrastructure spending.
