(Washington, D.C. WTIC)-Senators Richard Blumenthal and Chris Murphy expect a vote on the one trillion dollar infrastructure measure by the end of the week.
The latest version was crafted last night. Both Senators say votes will now occur on amendments.
For Connecticut money is provided for various infrastructure including 30-Billion for Connecticut rail, one hundred million dollars more for water habitat and coastal restoration for Long Island Sound, six million to rebuild the New London Pier and 50 Million for infrastructure projects at the Coast Guard Academy.
Senator Richard Blumenthal calls the measure a good start. But he and Senator Murphy say after the Infrastructure bill is passed, a more robust measure is needed to provide human capital for jobs, child care children's tax credit and free community college
