Signs have popped up in front of major infrastructure projects financed by the Biden legislation, a $1.2 trillion package that Mr. Trump whom had passionately railed against. He called the bill “a loser for the U. S. A.,” and warned that Republican lawmakers who signed on could be thrown out of office by angry primary voters.

The signs note, in a smaller font, that the projects in question are “funded by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act,” the official name of the legislation that Mr. Trump tried to derail.

In June 2024, Senator Ted Cruz complained about the Biden emblazened signs to the Office of Special Counsel, arguing that they amounted to campaign signs for Mr. Biden, and thus violated the Hatch Act, which limits federal employees’ political activities.

“These displays are nothing more than campaign yard signs courtesy of the American taxpayer,” Mr. Cruz wrote at the time. The special counsel’s office investigated the matter, disagreed with Mr. Cruz and closed the case.

This week, Mr. Cruz’s office did not respond to an email asking whether the Trump signs might also violate the Hatch Act.
