Big TakeThe Man With $1.2 Trillion to Spend and an Infrastructure Plan to SellIn November 2021, President Joe Biden signed the $1.2 trillion Bipartisan Infrastructure Act into law. That hasn’t translated into a clear political win for a president seeking reelection, though.

That’s not just bad news for Biden, it’s bad news for White House Senior Advisor Mitch Landrieu, the president’s “infrastructure coordinator.” Senior Washington Correspondent Saleha Mohsin sat down with Landrieu for The Big Take.
