Sign Petition: Create a $5 Trillion National Infrastructure Bank

To the Members of the United States Congress:

We, the undersigned, urge you to enact the National Infrastructure Bank Act (H.R.5356), to establish a $5 trillion National Infrastructure Bank (NIB) that finances urgently needed projects in every state.

The NIB is designed to:

• Provide long-term, low-cost financing for national, regional, and local infrastructure—including transportation, water and wastewater, energy transmission and generation, public buildings, schools, broadband, and truly affordable housing.

• Mobilize private capital alongside public leadership, using proven federal tools, so communities can build now and pay over time.

• Create millions of good, family-supporting jobs, expand apprenticeships and skilled trades, and strengthen American industry and supply chains.

• Work with states, cities, public authorities, and public-private partnerships on projects that have clear public value and local sponsors.

This approach has bipartisan support across the country. Dozens of major city councils, state legislatures, and national organizations have urged Congress to pass an NIB, recognizing it as a practical, American solution that can be stood up quickly and focused on results. 

We are asking you to:

Enact H.R.5356 without delay so communities can break ground on priority projects—without new taxes and without cuts to critical programs.

America has done this before. Alexander Hamilton, Abraham Lincoln, and Franklin Roosevelt all advocated for and utilized federal credit for infrastructure. With clear purpose and modern financing, we can do it again—safer water, faster commutes, resilient power, affordable homes, and prosperity built to last.

Please pass the National Infrastructure Bank Act.
