President Donald Trump’s administration will consider "all revenue sources" to finance his plan to upgrade U.S. roads, bridges and other infrastructure, Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao said during a House committee hearing.
Chao acknowledged Tuesday that paying for the plan is a major issue, and she told members of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee that the administration wants to work with Congress to find bipartisan solutions.
