Transportation Group Launches New Ad Campaign (AASHTO)
“It makes no sense to build part of a highway…. It makes even less sense to pass only part of a highway bill.” That is the message to Congress in the latest advertisement placed by the Transportation Construction Coalition in prominent Capitol Hill news outlets.
The ad outlines for Congress and the Obama Administration the importance of acting on the pending transportation bill: “The best way to grow the economy and add jobs is to pass a robust six-year surface transportation investment bill NOW. Hundreds of thousands of construction workers are counting on you.”
Established in 1996, the Transportation Construction Coalition (TCC) includes 28 national associations and labor unions with a direct market interest in federal transportation programs. The TCC focuses on the federal budget and surface transportation program policy issues.
