TRANSPORTATION  

"I will continue to fight for Maryland's fair share with smart investments that create jobs and keep travelers on the move and reduce pollution and congestion. Funds in the federal checkbook for Maryland's highways, roads and mass transit systems means more than just transportation – it means residents and visitors in Maryland can live, work, and play throughout the state in safety.  " - U.S. Senator Barbara A. Mikulski (D-Md.)

As a member of the Transportation Appropriations Subcommittee, Senator Mikulski believes we must modernize our nation's infrastructure, including our roads, bridges, and transit systems. Making these investments is not just important for our quality of life and safety, it is critical to creating jobs and improving our economy. Senator Mikulski's transportation and infrastructure priorities include:

·  Reforming the safety and reliability of mass transit
·  Ensuring the solvency of the Highway Trust Fund
·  Creating a dedicated source of funding for our nation's infrastructure upgrades
