Take Action! Update our Transportation System

by Administrator on January 23, 2011

Tell Senator Boxer to be our next transportation leader in Congress.

As the 112th Congress takes up the delayed transportation bill, leadership is shifting – and it’s unclear who will take responsibility for moving forward the policies we need to achieve a 21st century transportation system for our nation.

Until Congress acts, our aging transportation infrastructure will continue to put lives at risk – with crumbling bridges, unsafe streets, severe air pollution and ongoing dependence on foreign oil. We need an updated transportation program to protect our communities and jump-start California’s economy, and we need it ASAP.

Our own Senator Boxer will remain Chair of the powerful Environment and Public Works Committee that is writing the bill – and we must let her know that California wants her to lead the charge for a cutting-edge transportation system with strong provisions for transit, walking, biking, and high-speed rail.

Write to Senator Boxer today! Tell her to deliver a transportation bill that creates an accountable, sustainable and clean transportation system. Click here for more information on the Action Alert.
