After sparking a regional war, threatening to destroy an entire country, spending tens of billions of taxpayer dollars, damaging our economy, and sending Americans into harm’s way, Trump’s big breakthrough is an agreement that is weaker than President Obama’s 2015 deal that Trump ripped up.

Should this egregious trend continue, 11 projects in 10 states…that anticipate signing a CIG grant agreement this year could be subjected to senseless delay.
Our local public transit systems are the backbone of economy, connecting people to jobs, schools, essential services, and opportunities in their communities.
We are very concerned that delaying the CIG project pipeline, while advancing only the Utah project, is potentially rooted in partisan political considerations, which could further violate statutory requirements.
For these reasons and our deep concern regarding the treatment and protection of unaccompanied children, we call for an independent, timely, transparent, and public investigation at both the state and federal level into this award.
