"Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. And I thank you for this and the continuing series of very important hearings that the committee and the subcommittee have been holding on MAP-21, and I look forward..."

"In the absence of Federal action for behind-the-wheel training... I like to know... when you intend to issue a rule."

"The changes that we enacted in MAP-21 are proving what I think we all recognized, and that is many years to put in place to bring about the reforms, rather considerable reforms and vision there."

"This region experienced a horrific tragedy. And out of that tragedy, I am pleased to say, at least came the first Federal authority to regulate Metrorail safety through cities."
