WASHINGTON, D.C. — Former U.S. Rep. Todd Rokita, R-Indiana, is one step closer to being on the Amtrak board of directors after a Senate committee approved his nomination this week.
President Donald Trump nominated Rokita to an open position on the board in May, but the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation approved the first step of his nomination Wednesday in a voice vote.
