USDOT and States Miss Minority Contractor Goals
"It's just absolutely not fair that we're spending taxpayer dollars, and that many of our communities are being completely left out," TEN Executive Director Laura Barrett told Minnesota Public Radio.
Highway Stimulus Inequities "Shocking"
The USDOT has disclosed that of the $48 billion in federal stimulus funds committed for highway construction thus far, only $986 million (2%) were committed to disadvantaged and minority contractors. This inequity is absolutely shocking.
High-Speed Rail Must Revitalize US
"Gamaliel affiliates across the country have been fighting to revitalize our cities for the past decade, and investments in high-speed rail can be a powerful way to do that by expanding opportunity and connecting communities," said Gamaliel Associate Director Ana Garcia-Ashley.
