Our Vision

21st Century Infrastructure

Create green jobs through greater investment in modernized infrastructure and healthy communities — from highway maintenance and repair to public transit upgrades to green housing and neighborhood construction.

A World-Class Rail System

Build a world-class rail network — both between cities and within them — that links our communities, transports people and goods more smoothly and makes our economy more competitive.

Fixing it First

Protect the integrity of our existing highway and public transportation systems with an aggressive program of rehabilitation and upkeep, and financial support for superior service.

Helping People Drive Less

Help people drive less, avoid unpredictable gas prices, get healthy and stay active in their own neighborhoods through expanded construction of public transit, bicycle routes, and safe sidewalks to walk on.

Fiscal Responsibility

Set and enforce national transportation standards, but empower local communities to decide what is necessary to meet those goals as well as the needs of its neighborhoods and residents.

Do you want a 21st century transportation system?

The Interstate System is complete. So what's next?

Do you want to join with us in demanding that transportation works for all Americans in the 21st century?

Sign up today and stand with the others who are ready for a new, visionary transportation system to serve America for the next 50 years. The Federal Transportation bill will be reauthorized in 2009, and now is the time to start fighting for something different — something that can get us where we need to go quickly and efficiently, end our dependence on oil, clean up the air, and provide us with a better, stronger America. By signing up, we'll alert you to new research, events in your area — and most importantly — chances to weigh in with your elected leaders and let your voice be heard.

We promise to keep your information private, and we will never sell it or share it with groups that are not involved with this campaign.
