Rock County may be a key element in a Congressional sales pitch to spend $1 trillion on infrastructure. U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin says her fellow Democrats have offered a blueprint for investment on projects throughout the country like the I-39/90 expansion. The Democrat made a stop in Edgerton to argue for support of more federal investment in roads, bridges, and ports. Visit Beloit Director Celestino Ruffini agrees improvements to I-39/90 should bolster the attention of prospective businesses and visitors. Forward Janesville Vice President of Government Relations Dan Cunningham joined Baldwin for the tour and agrees Wisconsin may benefit from the initiative. Baldwin appears to expect bi-partisan support, mentioning how the president has already committed to the investment.
