Coalition for the National Infrastructure Bank

$5 Trillion, 25 Million Jobs

National Infrastructure Bank Day of ACTION Thursday, January 27, 2022

January 17, 2022


Mobilize your allies, friends and neighbors on January 27, all day, to spread the word about the National Infrastructure Bank campaign. This is a positive, urgent, solution to what ails our nation. Since the successful passage of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law in early November, the government has been unable to take further action. The Coalition for a National Infrastructure Bank (NIB) has the answer, and is rushing to fill the vacuum. We are campaigning for the passage of H.R.3339, to create a $5 trillion infrastructure bank to build our nation. 

The Coalition supported the Bi-Partisan Infrastructure Law, but it will only cover 10% of what the nation needs. There is no money in that bill for affordable housing: the NIB will build affordable housing for everyone. The Infrastructure Law has no money for high speed rail; the NIB will build a 15,000-mile system. The Infrastructure Law has no money for water projects to address drought in the West; the NIB has sufficient money to tackle this problem. The Infrastructure Law will replace 20% of the lead service lines; the NIB will fix all the lines starting in year one. The Infrastructure Law is short on everything else, i.e. roads, broadband, bridges, rail, clean water, etc. 

The legislation for the National Infrastructure Bank is H.R.3339 in the U.S. House of Representatives. We need every member of Congress, red state, blue state, and all other colors, to sign on to this bill. Call your member of Congress today and ask them to co-sponsor H.R.3339. 

Help us educate the country on the workings of the Infrastructure Bank and this landmark legislation. Reach out to everyone you know, as if your life depends on it; it does! Do your part: 


  • Call your member of Congress: 202-224-3121; ask them to co-sponsor H.R.3339
  • Call your state and local officials; urge them to support the resolutions in your legislature which back H.R.3339. You can see a list of resolutions in the provided leaflet
  • Help get a resolution introduced. If there is no resolution in your state, urge them to introduce one. Staff officials of the Coalition are ready to lend a hand with all elected and other officials. “We have your back.”
  • Set up zoom meetings with friends and political allies (and enemies!!); the Coalition can provide speakers. The contact information for the Coalition is below.
  • Help Start a Social Media Storm: Everyone has Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, etc. Use your social media to spread the word on the National Infrastructure Bank. If you do your part, we can reach 100,000 people by January 27 on social media alone! 
  • Submit Op-Eds for Newspapers; a sample for submission can be provided
  • Set Up Radio and TV interviews---Coalition spokespersons are available to inform the public 
  • Make a Contribution: the Coalition for a National Infrastructure Bank has a goal to raise $2500 for our January 27 Day of Action to fund the effort. Your financial contribution will go to digital advertising and other media
