Fragment of a discussion from Comments:Obama announces plan to build roads, railroads and runways

See my comment above. In 2005, the Republican-controlled Congress passed SAFETEA-LU, which invested over $280 billion over four years on road, rail, air and sea infrastructure. That has not been renewed since it expired in 2009.

The Republican-controlled Congress also passed its predecessor, TEA-21, in 1999.

This doesn't even match the annual expenditure under SAFETEA-LU. And yet you say the GOP "underinvested"?
