'Many are saying the stuff in the second bill was in this [infrastructure] bill. It's disinformation intended to divide and raise their ratings,' said Rep. Don Bacon.
"The entire bill is infrastructure. Don't believe the disinformation," he said in another tweet."There's a second bill that we'll be voting on next week. Many are saying the stuff in the second bill was in this bill. It's disinformation intended to divide and raise their ratings."

Manufacturers and Ag producers in Nebraska and the US will be better off with improved roads, rails, waterways and broadband," said a board member at the Association of Equipment Manufacturers, Leif Magnusson, onBacon himself was praised for putting politics aside and thinking of people's best interests.
"That only makes me feel better about his vote. He put [the] country above [the] party. Imho, he showed integrity, common sense and the ability to not confuse what's best for R or D, but for everyone. That's how it's supposed to work. He represents more ppl than just those that know him," tweeted user @
