Something More Than Free

Does a song and its lyrics hit home and make you think? Something More Than Free, by Jason Isbell is one of those songs. “I don’t think on why I’m here, where it hurts, I’m just lucky to have the work.” “I thank God for the work.” Are you thankful for the crews who work in the hot blazing sun, in the rain and in the winter to fix our roads, streets, and bridges; and plow the snow and keep the roads safe? Are you thankful for the $550 billion over fiscal years 2022-2026 from the Infrastructure Act that will provide jobs to build mass ...
