(BARTON):
"WITH A NEWLY DIVIDED CONTROL IN WASHINGTON, A BIPARTISAN APPROACH TO ADDRESSING
AMERICA'S INFRASTRUCTURE IS AN ENORMOUS OPPORTUNITY--FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP AND BOTH CHAMBERS OF CONGRESS, ALIKE.
THAT'S WHY WE ENCOURAGE BOTH PARTIES TO COME TOGETHER, AND ADVANCE SOLUTIONS THAT MOVE AMERICA FORWARD.
WE BELIEVE THAT AN INFRASTRUCTURE-PACKAGE IS DOABLE--AND [THAT] IT'S TIME TO GET IT PASSED:
BOTH PARTIES HAVE ALREADY SHARED PLANS TO SHORE UP AND MODERNIZE INFRASTRUCTURE; STATES ARE BEING INNOVATIVE, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO TRANSPORTATION; AND VOTERS HAVE AGAIN SUPPORTED PRO-INFRASTRUCTURE MEASURES, IN STATES LIKE CALIFORNIA, FLORIDA, AND CONNECTICUT.
MOVING FORWARD ON INFRASTRUCTURE WILL ALSO CREATE JOBS, STOKE CONTINUED ECONOMIC-VITALITY, AND DELIVER QUALITY-OF-LIFE IMPROVEMENTS.
WITH A RENEWED INTEREST AND SPIRIT-OF-COLLABORATION, PRESIDENT TRUMP AND CONGRESS CAN LEAD, WORK TOGETHER, AND DELIVER ON
INFRASTRUCTURE--AN ISSUE OF GREAT IMPORTANCE THAT AFFECTS ALL AMERICANS."
