Summary

With the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill being signed by President Biden on Monday, grants can start going out but planning for various projects could likely take months before getting funded by federal dollars. FOX News Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram explains how the reaction to this bill reminded him of previous debates in Congress. While Congress was out of session this week, lawmakers made their way overseas to meet with foreign counterparts at the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference. Louisiana Republican Congressman Garett Graves shares his experience at the summit after returning home, and discusses what some climate solutions might be. Learn more about your ad choices.
