The President's infrastructure plan reportedly includes tolls and local tax hikes and Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown opposes both. Senator Brown Said that President Trump should work with congress to pass bipartisan legislation to address the nation's infrastructure needs rather than pass the cost on to drivers, cities and communities through tax hikes and tolls.
Senator Brown stated that he knows Ohio communities and workers are already strapped for cash.
The infrastructure blue print was released last January, identifying areas for infrastructure from rural broadband and affordable housing to rebuilding roads and bridges after noticing that Ohio has the 12th highest number of structurally deficient bridges in the country.
