Transportation
The issue of Transportation is important to our district and to my work in Congress.
This year the House has begun to reauthorize the federal transportation bill, the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21). I have had the opportunity to directly participate in this important legislative process that will fund the nation’s transportation programs over the next six years.
I have already begun to work to guarantee that citizens of the 9 th district receive federal transportation dollars. These funds are vital in our efforts to keep Houston moving. More importantly, they’ll help address our city’s ever-growing challenges of congestion and safety, while creating the kind of jobs that support families and increase our tax base.
