Transportation Budget in Washington D.C.

 

Hi All, Here are links to two transportation webinars. The first covers what’s happening in Washington related to biking and walking. As requested, I’m including time stamps for specific sections. One suggestion- listen to it as a podcast if you don’t have time to watch it.  (There’s also a link to just the slides.) This webinar covers: The House and Senate proposed transportation budget (minute 0:30=14:45) Including language that opens the door to motorized vehicles on trails (minute 13:00=14:45) An update on tax reform (14:45-17:45) An update on the Infrastructure package (17:45-21:30) How to visit with your member of Congress while they are home in the district ( 21:30-40:00) This is an easy way to make a big difference!!!!  Fed policy update July August.pdf ​ ​  July:August Fed policy update.mp4 Also, here is a link to a webinar we did with Amtrak, Adventure Cycling Association, National Association of Railroad passengers.
