"Statement of International Bridge, Tunnel and Turnpike Association, Submitted for the Record by Hon. Eleanor Holmes Norton"

"This is a very important hearing, because without you, we really would have no notion of what is at stake here."

"I want to welcome our witnesses in particular, but all of you to today's hearing, as we are fast galloping toward the need to reauthorize the FAST Act."

"It is an extreme proposal, to put it mildly. There is a reason that reorganizations are rarely done."
