The Economic Impacts of High-Speed Rail on Cities and their Metropolitan Areas
Monday, June 14th, 2010UNITED STATES CONFERENCE OF MAYORS
Existing modes of transportation currently consume more than two-thirds of our nation’s oil supply and are responsible for nearly a third of our carbon dioxide emissions. As a result, we need to make tomorrow’s transportation infrastructure more energy efficient, more environmentally sustainable, and less reliant on foreign oil. Future federal transportation investments should address energy, economic, and climate concerns through reforms and programs that emphasize sustainable transportation environments.

Dear Friends,
It is encouraging to finally see clear signs of federal action to support a comprehensive US infrastructure investment plan.
Now more than ever, our advocacy is needed to keep stakeholders informed and connected, and to hold politicians to their promises to finally fix our nation’s ailing infrastructure.
We have already engaged nearly 280,000 users, and hoping to add many more as interest continues to grow.
We require your support in order to rise to this occasion, to make the most of this opportunity. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to InfrastructureUSA.org.
