The Federal Highway Administration has announced that it will distribute $52.5 billion in funding to all 50 states and the District of Columbia.

The amount is the largest federal highway apportionment in decades and it will go towards improvements in roads, bridges and freeways with the goal of cutting down traffic deaths and serious injuries.

Another goal of the transportation bill is to reverse the damage caused by the racist history of highways. Part of the 2022 funding will be used to reconnect as many as 20 communities intentionally divided by interstates.

Community organizer Shawn Dunwoody joins Marc Lamont Hill on “Black News Tonight” to discuss how the infrastructure bill can impact Black and Brown communities.

All this and more on “Black News Tonight.”
