Congresswoman Cheri Bustos of Illinois says the state’s farmers and rural residents will benefit greatly from the recently passed federal infrastructure bill.
 
Bustos says $10 billion is designated for highway repairs in Illinois.
 
“We’ve got about 6200 miles of highways that are considered in poor condition in our state. If you want to look back at 2011, commute times have increased by more than 7% in Illinois since then and now drivers are paying an average $600 more per year in costs because of driving on roads that need to be repaired.”
