Statement on Biden Administration’s Call for Infrastructure Investment
NCBA CLUSA is pleased to see the call from President Biden to make much-needed investments in our nation’s infrastructure and addressing issues of climate change, racial equity, and home care. Today’s announcement centers cooperatives in helping rural Americans capture educational and economic potential through broadband.
It’s clear from the White House’s plan that cooperatives can also play an integral role in energy efficiency, housing, the food system, workforce development, and especially in the care economy that will help more people own, control, and benefit from the businesses and services they use.
NCBA CLUSA is eager to continue our work with the White House and with Congress to include cooperatives as a strategy for inclusive, equitable and sustainable growth for years to come.
