Rep. Rosa L. DeLauro (CT) has introduced the National Infrastructure Development Bank Act of 2009 (H.R. 2521). The bill would create a government owned corporation that could buy and sell bonds, make and guarantee loans and undertake similar activity for the purpose of financing a variety of infrastructure projects. The bank would be capitalized by $5 billion, with possibly more in callable capital, a year from the Department of Treasury from 2010 to 2014. The law would close the bank after 15 years.
