"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.
