House to vote Wednesday on massive infrastructure bill - Roll Call

The most expensive collection of provisions have to do with the bill’s Green Energy section, which would extend or expand a number of energy tax credits as well as allow green energy publicly traded partnerships the same benefits of existing publicly traded partnerships for fossil fuels. The CBO says the Green Energy package would cost $124 billion over 10 years.

Housing provisions, mainly involving expansions for the low-income housing tax credit, would cost $86.7 billion over 10 years.

Meanwhile, a mix of tax provisions, including federally subsidized infrastructure bonds, along the lines of Build America Bonds, and a large expansion in tax-exempt private activity bonds, would increase revenues by $23.5 billion.

Instead, he said, they borrowed from general revenue to pay for it.

“It’s an investment,” he said.
