Alabama Republican Rep. Gary Palmer touted the benefits for his district from a provision in the infrastructure bill he voted against. He issued a press release taking credit for a provision he introduced directing $369 million to a project in his state

Elizabeth Hance, a spokesperson in Palmer's Capitol office, said Palmer's opposition was to the overall bill being "full of problems, including items not related to traditional infrastructure."
