The House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure (T&I) yesterday held its first hearing of the 116th Congress to highlight reasons for investing in the nation’s infrastructure.
Chaired by U.S. Rep. Peter DeFazio (D-Ore.), the committee heard testimony from two panels, which included such speakers as Amtrak President and Chief Executive Officer Richard Anderson and former U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood.
