The Congressional Record is a unique source of public documentation. It started in 1873, documenting nearly all the major and minor policies being discussed and debated.
“NOTICE OF INTENT TO OBJECT TO PROCEEDING” mentioning the U.S. Dept. of Transportation was published in the Senate section on pages S3866 on June 29, 2017.
The Department handles nearly all infrastructure crisscrossing the country. Downsizing the Federal Government, a project aimed at lowering taxes and boosting federal efficiency, said the Department should be privatized to save money, reduce congestion and spur innovation.
The publication is reproduced in full below:
NOTICE OF INTENT TO OBJECT TO PROCEEDING
I, Senator Tammy Duckworth, intend to object to proceeding to the nomination of Steven Gill Bradbury, of Virginia, to be General Counsel for the Department of Transportation, dated June 29, 2017.
