Opis

Dating back to the Eisenhower administration and even before that-we've seen the Federal Government make transportation investments a priority. We've shown the world what it means to have first-class roads, bridges, tunnels, ports and railroads. We've shown other countries how it can be done. But our attitude has shifted. For some reason, we're not doing that any more. We're no longer leading the world. Rather, we're now looking to China and elsewhere as they become the ones who are building the big projects with a grand vision and an eye to the future. Still, our needs are as real as ever. Our bridges are crumbling. Our roads are rife with potholes. And congressional inaction only exacerbates these problems.
