Our statement statement from Carlo A. Scissura, Esq., President and CEO of the New York Building Congress on the bipartisan, five-year surface transportation reauthorization bill, The BUILD America 250 Act - Building Unrivaled Infrastructure and Long-term Development for America's 250th Act:
"This bipartisan, five-year Surface Transportation Reauthorization - the BUILD America 250 Act - sets the nation on a path forward for critical investments in roads, bridges, transit, rail, and carrier safety. It is imperative that Congress follows the example of their leadership, and comes to agreement on the nitty-gritty details to sign this into law by the fall. The Building Congress plans to forcefully speak up on this legislation in Washington in the coming months on behalf of our members, who will put these plans into action. Let's build, America!"
