CT SENATOR JOE LIEBERMAN joined a recent roundtable discussion at CCIA and reviewed the pending federal economic stimulus package with CCIA members, Keep CT Moving Coalition members, CONNDOT, FHWA, and labor representatives.
Sen. Lieberman talked about Congress’ discussions, specifically the funding formula, (using the SAFETEA- LU model), and the various industries, other than the transportation and infrastructure, such as power distribution and broad ban access, that are vying for federal economic stimulus money.
The Senator was very receptive to the group’s concerns about when the money would be available to the states, and when projects could begin.
With the upcoming reauthorization of SAFETEA-LU this year, Sen. Lieberman suggested another meeting with the group to review the group’s issues and recommendations.
