CBS "Face the Nation" interviews during 2017: on Technology


Bernie Sanders: 13 million jobs by rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure

Q: On infrastructure, next week, they are going to spend a couple of days [on it in a GOP meeting]. Can you do anything to reach out and why not grab the moment?

SANDERS: You are absolutely right. I would hope very much that President Trump will work with us. If he wants to come on board and work with us, that would be great. In terms of infrastructure, clearly, he is right when he says that our infrastructure is crumbling. We can create up to 13 million decent-paying jobs by rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure. We're going to have legislation in that will do just that. I hope that he will work with us. We also understand that our trade policies are a disaster. Let's see if we can work together on that as well.
