I thank the gentlewoman from California for offering this amendment. While grade crossing incidents have dropped 40 percent since 2000, the tragic events in Ms. Brownley's district last week remind us how important it is to be aware of grade crossings. This amendment requiring States to develop and implement plans to improve safety at grade crossings within their borders, I think, adds strength to the bill. I would also note there are similar grade crossing reporting requirements in the Federal highway program, and we should work with the Senate during conference to reauthorize the surface transportation programs, ensuring that there is consistency among the requirements at those grade crossings. Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.
