ABC Calls for Fair and Open Competition in Infrastructure Projects

On July 23, the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works Subcommittee on Transportation and Infrastructure held a hearing titled, “The Road Ahead: Proposals to Improve America’s Transportation Infrastructure.” Ahead of the hearing, ABC sent a letter to the committee calling on them to prioritize fair and open competition and an all-of-the-above approach to workforce development as it crafts the Surface Transportation Act reauthorization.
