Congressman Mark Alford

[May 7, 2026]

❗Breaking ground on a stronger, safer future for Missouri❗
Joined Governor Mike Kehoe, local leaders, and Missouri Department of Transportation today in Columbia to kick off the I-70 expansion—bringing three lanes in each direction from Rocheport to Columbia. This transformational investment will reduce congestion, improve safety, and keep our state moving.
Proud to stand alongside community partners as we lay the foundation for long-term growth, and to continue working in Congress to support projects that build on this momentum right here in MO-04! 🛣️

There is much hilarity in the responses:

Mark, why do you look so happy? Is it because you stole a Democratic funded project to put your name on it?

Shouldn’t you be in Washington! You have some bad issues there!

Is Mark using Joe Biden’s shovel????🪏 Since this was Biden’s legislation? Awesome work, indeed.

few republicans voted for Biden’s infrastructure bill, but they all love taking credit for the results.

First time anyone in the photos have held hand tools

Is Alford wearing his own personal microphone?

A huge thank you to President Joe Biden and his congress for funding this project. Dang I miss Democrats!

Thanks Joe Biden for signing the infrastructure bill after the last Trump administration had Infrastructure Week for 4 years and did nothing

Say that again. Just love how repubs take credit for programs they voted against. Vote Blue.

Adding more lanes rarely reduces traffic congestion long-term because of a phenomenon known as induced demand. While new lanes might temporarily ease congestion, the increased capacity attracts more drivers, leading to more trips and longer commutes. Within 5–10 years, traffic typically returns to or exceeds previous congestion levels

[….] We’re just reminding people that the money allocated for this is a result of President Biden’s infrastructure bill, yet Mark Alford and Mike Kehoe are taking credit for it.

Thank Joe Biden for all the infrastructure improvements.

Thanks President Biden for your hard work taking care of people

Winning!

Thanks, Joe Biden! Infrastructure bill still paying for itself!

Great Job Biden!

Thank you President Biden for the infrastructure bill that made this possible.

Thanks to the Biden infrastructure bill.

Now if we only could afford gas to drive on it.

Nobody can afford to drive on the damn thing

Regular Unleaded yesterday, 5/6/26 $4.30 gallon in Lee’s Summit

Can we thank the Biden Administration ,or is that against the MAGA Cult?

You’re a joke!!!!!

Trying to take credit for Biden’s infrastructure bill that EVERY Missouri Republican congressman and woman voted against, I see. 🙄

You had nothing to do with this other than digging a hole!

The federal funding for this project was approved in President Biden’s infrastructure bill, which Mark has always opposed. Now he’s there to claim credit for it. 🤡

Don’t forget to thank Biden’s infrastructure act for your photo op, Mark

Thanks president Biden and now republicans are trying to to take credit for for your accomplishments

You didn’t have any role in this, but you couldn’t pass up the photo opp, could you.

Did you notice the gas prices across the highway? [….]

The Biden Infrastructure program is the only source of your “wins…” 😂

Where do the funding come from? Biden’s infrastructure bill that yall tried to kill? So now you take credit. Congressman Mark Alford you continue to be an embarrassment and disgrace.
