On behalf of the undersigned organizations, we urge your support for the Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act of 2026. The durable and lasting permitting reforms contained within this legislation will deliver transformative change for industries and communities across our nation and the economy.
The American Highway Users Alliance (the Highway Users) is pleased to express support for the recently announced Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act of 2026 (BAAJA), S. 5653. The BAAJA takes important steps in modernizing and improving the permitting process for infrastructure and energy projects. Today’s permitting system is slow and unpredictable, leading to increased costs and needlessly delaying construction projects. This bill would bring greater certainty to the permitting process and speed up construction projects.
On behalf of the American Cement Association, the National Asphalt Pavement Association, the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association and the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association, we write in strong support of the Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act and urge the Senate to pass it.

The 51 undersigned organizations urge the swift confirmation of Keith Sonderling to serve as Secretary of Labor. Acting Secretary Sonderling is well-qualified and has extensive experience in workplace and public service. He has a proven record of success managing the Department of Labor, which he has been doing since April, and, if confirmed, he will continue to steer the Department of Labor toward policies that protect workers, provide clear guidance to the employer community, and reduce the regulatory burden on the economy, allowing it to thrive.
The undersigned organizations appreciate the opportunity to comment on the Securities and Exchange Commission's (the Commission) proposal to rescind in full the climate-related disclosure rule adopted in 2024 (Proposal). The undersigned organizations, representing companies of every size, in every sector, and across every region of the country, support full rescission.
The Coalition for a Democratic Workplace and the 26 undersigned organizations write to urge the quick confirmation of James Macy and David Prouty, President Trump’s nominees to serve on the National Labor Relations Board. If the Senate fails to confirm the President's nominees, the Board will lose its quorum on August 27, 2026. This will leave employers and workers in legal limbo as the agency loses its capacity to issue decisions and compound the already historic backlog of cases. It is therefore vital that the nominees come to the floor for a vote as soon as possible.
The federal government’s investment in our nation’s transportation network provides immense value to the American public. Accordingly, we urge you to preserve the FY 2026 funding levels enacted for all federal transportation programs, including those funded through the Highway Trust Fund and advance appropriations, as part of any short-term government funding measure or surface transportation program extension.
