ASCE is an organization that has been around in the US since 1852. It has helped built the roads, bridges, dams and the rest of the infrastructure of the US, and has developed following many technical studies and reports and observation of failures a solid foundation for engineers from all over the world to learn from and use in designing infrastructures from all over the world.
As far as bias, when one goes to the doctor for a physical, and the doctor runs tests and comes back with high cholesterol levels and provides recommendations to eat better or take medication or exercise because you “scored” 400 on your cholesterol level, is the Doctor biased?! ASCE has developed the report card based on un-biased protocols that they can defend, are not influenced by political or other factors. ASCE is a very ethical organization that is only looking to protect life and safety and the infrastructure of our country.
A Country is defined by its infrastructure, do we want to be a “third world country”? or improve our infrastructure?

I shy away from some bandwagons, but I believe there is a real problem with infrastructure repair and there is a real shortage of skilled trades workers. I accept the ASCE report card, but even if one wants to be suspicious of the grades they gave, everyone has to accept that infrastructure must be maintained.
