So even if we used deficit spending, it will pay off. Think of it like you owned a business. If you knew you'd have to spend $1000 on your credit account, but got back $1500-$3000, you'd do it. #twittercongress

I think we should create a federal infrastructure bank that states could draw out of to fund the projects they felt were best for their needs. #twittercongress

The framework for this already exists: https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ipd/finance/tools_programs/federal_credit_assistance/sibs/ … #twittercongress

So I'm going to hand this over to the next participant now. If you'd like to see my ideas put into place, you can follow me and donate here: https://secure.actblue.com/entities/49890/dashboard … #twittercongress

@tiffanybond #twittercongress Thanks Christine! I really appreciate your insight. Next we'll head over to @watts4congress, Ryan - the floor is yours...

.@DrMann4Congress, I’d like to be the first to second many of your ideas. The Army Corps is Engineers ranks our infrastructure at a D- level. #twittercongress

Each state’s Congressional delegation, alongside state and local leaders, should develop a prioritized list of projects. States should be allocated money based on individual infrastructure ranking and proportion of population #twittercongress

Our five year goal should be to raise our infrastructure rating from a D- to a C- over five years, and to a B- over ten. #twittercongress
