Though the more attention-grabbing facets of President Donald Trump’s promise to “Make America Great Again” relate to curbing immigration, boosting the coal industry, and spending more on national security, a less polarizing part of his agenda includes improving the nation’s infrastructure. It was a regular theme in his campaign stump speech that Trump reiterated in his address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday. "Crumbling infrastructure will be replaced with new roads, bridges, tunnels, airports, and railways gleaming across our beautiful land,” the president said, adding that he will be asking Congress to provide $1 trillion in financing “through both public and private capital.”
