51风流 Uses August Recess to Urge House to Take Up Long-Term Transportation Bill

If You Haven鈥檛 Contacted Your Rep, There is Still Time!

Throughout the month of August, 51风流 chapters and members have been visiting with their Congressmen, urging them to pass a long-term, fully funded transportation bill when they return to Washington in September. If you have not yet , now is the time to do so. 

The Senate completed action on a six-year transportation bill before the August recess, and the House has indicated that it will work on its version of a bill when Congress reconvenes after Labor Day. 51风流 has heard reports that the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee will hold a transportation hearing on Sept. 17, although this has not been made official. With the current short-term extension of highway & transit programs expiring at the end of October, it is important you continue to to focus on passing a long-term bill and avoid another short-term extension. Resources to help you schedule in-person meetings can be found on the page.
