Since great part of the goods world-wide is transported on gigantic ships - it has found the American president - must contrive to have enough large bridges enough high and ports in order to accommodate them and to receive them so that our companies can continue to sell the goods realized in America in the remainder of the world. Meanwhile many American companies send the their produced in all nation through the rivers and the channels and therefore we must make so that such water course are in perfect conditions".
Finding that historically the investments in infrastructures have received a support bipartisan by the Conference, what that but has not happened during the last few years, and wishing that the approval of the WRRDA constitutes a positive precedence for the other infrastructural projects, Obama has emphasized the urgent necessity for the Conference approves of a law that allows to realize investments also for the restructure of roads and bridges: "I want but to be clear - it has specified - if the Conference does not act, then the federal financings for the transport projects will be exhausted within the end of the summer" and this - it has concluded the president - would put to risk beyond one hundred thousand projects in course and almost 700 thousand places of work.
