Sounds like you need a better family.

The Infrastructure Act has provision for eliminating iron piping from US city water supply

Why would you want to do that? Lead is the problem not iron.

Treating a home as an investment vehicle is a big part of the problem. It’s a place to live, not a market dice roll.

I thought the last line was as simple as I could make it...

Right, which is why I found the one sentence I quoted strangely at odds with the rest of what you said. Most of your comment suggests she should get started right out of the gate, and then that one seems to say she shouldn’t.

IMO If she doesn’t already know what she can do by that time, she had darn well better start finding out ASAP so she can get it done immediately…

If she does the "now that I'm in office I'm going to start trying to find out if I can do anything"

Not sure what you’re trying to say with this. Are you saying she shouldn’t try to do anything? If so what is the point of electing her? As I see it, it’s the exact opposite and she should immediately try to accomplish some goals. Why wait?

How does it “use” reliability?

I get why they did it ( because it’s “printers and other devices”) but seriously would it be that hard to link it in both places? Or actually make a printer settings that works worth a shit so you don’t need the control panel app?

I mean feel free to count search results if you care to assess exactly how common it is. Regardless, writing this phrase is not “insanity”

So it sounds like you’re just not familiar with the phrase. It might not be “accepted and used” in your area, and I agree it’s confusing. But it is common, regardless.

Many examples can be found in your choice of search engine, here’s one result but it’s very very common.

As Schwanz’s granddaughter approached Lemmon’s casket, she shook her head yes and said, “That’s her,” referring to her great-grandmother, Rummerfield.

That is a very strange computer.

Sound is in there too. The one that annoys me is the printer settings being under “Bluetooth” instead of “printers”.
