California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger will meet with his counterparts at the National Governors Association in Washington, D.C. this weekend.
Schwarzenegger is set to arrive today and plans to appear with Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg to discuss their partnership on infrastructure.
Last month the three governors announced they would work together to encourage more federal spending on roads, bridges, transit systems and water projects. They say the nation needs to invest about $1.6 trillion to rebuild crumbling infrastructure.
Schwarzenegger is skipping the spring meeting of the California Republican party in San Francisco this weekend so he can be in Washington.
