Every five years, Congress “reauthorizes” transportation policies and spending levels for the next five years. The previous reauthorization — known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, or the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) — expires this year. So what does the future look like? More money for walking, biking, and transit? Accountability for how states spend their money? Or a continuation of the highway expansion projects spurred on by the IIJA? Join Beth Osborne, CEO and President of Smart Growth America and former U.S. Department of Transportation official, for a review of how we got here and what’s at stake for the future of federal policy.
