Panelists

As the Biden administration rolls out its $2 trillion infrastructure plan (and the whole nation debates what actually constitutes infrastructure in 2021), we’re focusing on how to improve the processes and regulations around infrastructure, so that we’re truly building back better. 

Why is American infrastructure so expensive compared to the rest of the world? How can we build and harness infrastructure that truly promotes equity and environmental justice? These are just a few of the questions we’ll be answering in this discussion, featuring Alon Levy, a fellow at the Marron Institute; Sanya Carley, O’Neill Professor of Public and Environmental Affairs; and Matthew Yglesias, Senior Fellow at the Niskanen Center.
