Subcommittee on Transportation, and House and Urban Development, and Related Agencies
After several years of increasingly severe weather events in my home state of North Carolina and around the country—and after tens of billions of dollars appropriated for disaster relief and emergency programs, much of it from this subcommittee—we must become more intentional about applying the concepts of mitigation and resiliency into our federal housing and transportation programs.
We also need to identify ways we can support these efforts at the state and local level.
Intercity passenger rail moves millions of Americans every year, and it serves as an economic engine for rural and urban communities.
Rail service, when running smoothly, offers passengers an extremely attractive travel option compared to car and aviation alternatives, especially over short and medium distances.
