ABC Expresses Concerns with Trajectory of the DOT

On July 24, ABC sent a letter to the U.S. House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure’s Subcommittee on Highways and Transit in regard to their hearing on “Examining the Department of Transportation’s Regulatory and Administrative Agenda." ABC expressed concern with Secretary Buttigieg's role in promoting the Biden-Harris administration’s sweeping environmental and labor initiatives rather than prioritizing efficient and economical infrastructure improvements. Specifically, the DOT has advanced a number of stipulations on taxpayer funded infrastructure projects.
