Congressman Garamendi urges the Department of Transportation to maintain Federal Highway Administration staffing for public safety during summer travel.
Quiver AI Summary
Congressman John Garamendi (CA-08) has joined his Democratic colleagues, led by Representative Chris Pappas (NH-01), in urging U.S. Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy to stop efforts to cut staffing levels at the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). In a recent letter, the lawmakers highlighted concerns that such reductions could lead to the closure of state-level FHWA division offices, thus impeding the Department of Transportation's ability to execute crucial public safety initiatives, especially as the summer travel season approaches.
The letter expresses apprehensions that significant workforce reductions have already disrupted FHWA operations in various states, with workforce cuts in North Carolina and Texas reaching up to 60%. The lawmakers argued that “gutting the FHWA’s workforce indiscriminately will make our communities less safe,” and urged the Department to reevaluate these staffing cuts to ensure that FHWA division offices are adequately supported to maintain infrastructure safety and stability.
