WASHINGTON — City leaders from across the U.S. vowed Monday to keep pressure on Congress to advance infrastructure legislation.
Infrastructure is the marquee issue at the National League of Cities 2018 Congressional City Conference taking place here this week. Over 2,000 city officials are attending the event and more than 200 NLC delegates have about 150 meetings planned on Capitol Hill.
“It’s no secret,” Little Rock, Arkansas Mayor Mark Stodola, the current president of the National League of Cities, said at a press conference Monday, “America has an infrastructure problem.”
