Description
The death of an Infrastructure Bill may have been greatly exaggerated. Join Washington Examiner for an exclusive one-on-one sitdown interview with Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, who will outline her plans to advance infrastructure improvements throughout the nation. In addition to discussing the Department's preferred infrastructure package, Sec. Chao will also be asked about how the Department is working to advance innovation with automated vehicles, drones, and even loop tunnels.
This will be an interview you won't want to miss. Prior to the interview, Washington Examiner will also host expert panels to analyze the chances of advancing an Infrastructure Bill and what should be in it.
