Responding to Policy Changes, Preparing for Reauthorization
WEBINAR: October 10, 2025, 11:00AM - 11:45AM PT
The Eno Center for Transportation (Eno) is hosting a free webinar to inform public agencies on policy changes and to prepare for the next surface transportation reauthorization.
Advocates for pedestrian, bicycle, and transit programs have been responding to dramatic policy shifts at the US Department of Transportation this year. The Trump administration has changed regulations and executive orders, reduced agency staffing levels, terminated grant programs, and shifted funding priorities.
The American Public Transportation Association (APTA), the Transportation for America, and America Walks have been educating officials at all levels of government about existing programs. They are also helping shape the debate in Congress as it considers reauthorizing the five-year federal transportation law, which expires in September 2026.
In this webinar, leaders from the three organizations will share their concerns, strategies, and hopes regarding federal transportation policies.
Webinar Panelists:
- Ward McCarragher, Vice President, Government Affairs & Advocacy, APTA
- Beth Osborne, President & CEO, Smart Growth America
- Mike McGinn, Executive Director, America Walks
