In Milwaukee, Vice President Kamala Harris visited the city this week. She touted the administration’s efforts to remove lead water lines, which was a part of the major infrastructure bill passed last year.
Kamala Harris:
Last month, we released the Biden-Harris Lead Pipe and Paint Action Plan and the goal is to remove and replace all lead pipes over the next 10 years. These investments will create good union jobs. These investments will address the needs of our children. These investments will result in improved public health, the creation of more jobs, the infusion of support for important apprenticeship programs, and it’s just simply the right thing to do.
Frederica Freyberg:
According to Harris, the $15 billion plan to remove lead pipes, $48 million of those funds will be disbursed to Wisconsin this year.
