While "infrastructure" is one of the least sexy words in the English language, it is one of the most important. Infrastructure is about the quality of life we want for ourselves, our families, and our communities. It is like the circulatory system of the body. It provides the opportunity for other things to happen. It is our roads, rails, and bridges. It is our electric grid. It is the water and sewer systems that are so important to our buildings and communities, as well as broadband, the Internet, and cell phones. Without a strong and healthy infrastructure, our nation will fall behind and we will lose our competitive economic edge.
