Bernie Sanders (D-Vt.) attempted to defend the wide definition of infrastructure in Joe Biden\u2019s proposed plan.<\/p>\n<p>During an interview on Saturday, Sanders described infrastructure not as just bricks and mortar, but human infrastructure as well. He said this is why it\u2019s fair for the $2.3 trillion package to include solutions for affordable housing, climate change and prescription drug prices.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We need to broaden our definition of infrastructure. It is, of course, bricks and mortar. But it is also human infrastructure. Now is the time to create millions of jobs addressing the needs of the working class.
