Presidential Candidate Pete Buttigieg has unveiled a one trillion-dollar infrastructure plan.

On Friday, the former South Bend Mayor pledged to direct federal funds to state and local governments in order to revitalize transportation networks across the nation.

He says under a Buttigieg administration, local governments would “finally have a partner in Washington.”

His campaign says the plan would be paid for by reforming the capital gains tax, raising the estate tax, and repealing the 2017 GOP tax overhaul. They claim the plan would also create 6,000,000 jobs.
