Federal Legislative Status Report

 

Overview

The Orange County Transportation Authority regularly updates the Legislative and Communications Committee on policy issues directly impacting the agency’s programs, projects, and operations.  An overview of the President’s infrastructure plan is provided, as is an update on efforts in Congress to potentially bring back funding earmarks for specific projects. In addition, several transportation-related hearings are summarized on various policy issues to give a high-level overview of the policy environment in the early days of the new Administration and the 117th Congress.
