President Joe Biden is expected to soon sign the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) into law after the House of Representatives passed the bipartisan measure on Nov. 5. The Senate approved the bill in August. IIJA includes a 5-year reauthorization of the Federal-aid Highway Program and a 55% increase in highway investments. 

“This bill represents a once-in-a-generation investment in the country’s transportation networks, demonstrating America’s long-standing commitment to provide safe roads, airports, and transit for the traveling public,” said NAPA President and CEO Audrey Copeland. “We urge President Biden to quickly sign this bipartisan package into law, so we can build back better with increased jobs, enhanced safety, and improved roads.”
