More from Rick Larsen
Congress directed investments in the BIL to reduce carbon pollution and improve safety and equity outcomes on our transportation systems.
Since the Norfolk Southern derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, committee Democrats have been calling for a rail safety hearing and rail safety legislation.
Addressing these priorities will continue to be a high priority for committee Democrats as we look forward to the reauthorization.
Thanks to the BIL, 57,000 projects are underway in every Congressional district across the country.
