According to Melaniphy, testifying on behalf of APTA: “This next authorization bill is imperative for the jobs and economic opportunities that it will create, for companies such as mine, and many others throughout the industry. This is an industry with a long and extended supplier base, and the investment that the Surface Transportation Authorization Act will provide will have an immense impact on jobs and our economy both immediately and for years to come.”
