 Policy
and Legislation
ITE is one of the largest multimodal professional
transportation organizations in the world. ITE’s Policy and Legislative Committee works to educate transportation professionals, policy makers, opinion leaders, the media and the public on issues critical to maintaining the safety, reliability and security of the surface transportation system. Although ITE is not a political organization, we do take positions on the reauthorization of the surface transportation program and other issues that affect our members and their efforts.
Please visit the ITE Government Affairs Action Site for more information. This wiki enables you to contribute to the discussion on a variety of government topics.
For more information on ITE’s policy and legislative activities, contact Aliyah N. Horton,
Professional Development and Government Affairs Senior Director at
ahorton@ite.org or 202-289-0222 ext. 137.
Future of the Transportation System
SAFETEA-LU, the U.S. surface transportation authorization bill, expires in September 2009. As such, ITE is working with its technical councils and Policy and Legislative Committee to develop position statements to address the future of the surface transportation system. As we move through the process, the site will be updated with statements and actions of relevance from ITE, the White House, U.S. DOT, Congress and other professional and trade associations.
