Tennessee Democratic Party - Transportation

Transportation

When it comes to the issue of transportation Tennessee Democrats are investing in things such as the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. This particular act will put Tennesseans back to work by having the workers rebuild crumbling roads and bridges and will also help to enable a stronger infrastructure for the 21st century economy. Others include the American Coastal Waters and Shorelines Protection Act, which would allow only American vessels to be a part of oil drilling activities in American coastal waters. Also the Critical Infrastructure Earthquake Preparedness Act, this will direct the Administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency to create a grant program that will improve the ability of trauma center hospitals and airports to withstand earthquakes.
