Webinar: Paving the way to accountability and a fix it first federal program

By Rachel Ellis, December 16, 2025

Despite spending $1.5 trillion over the last 30 years, the federal transportation program has failed to deliver results. This session will take a closer look at whether the program is worth saving, and unpack our policy proposals that would hold agencies accountable for real outcomes and prioritize fixing it first. In this webinar, SGA interim President and CEO Beth Osborne, and Transportation for America's Policy Manager, Corrigan Salerno, take a deep dive on how our policy proposals will help us achieve the results that Americans want.
