Legislation * USA - Post-health care debate, various legislative issues affecting transport in 2010 and beyond

Washington,DC,USA -Logistics Management, by John D. Schulz -27 Oct 2009: -- As the ongoing debate over health care reform has proven, Congress has extreme difficulty doing more than one thing at a time.

With health care sucking all the oxygen out of the room, transportation interests are bracing for 2010 when many key transport legislative initiatives likely will be fought... Among them:

* Renewal of the highway bill;
* Cap-and-trade provisions of climate change legislation;
* Employee Free Choice Act (i.e. "Card Check"); and
* The opening the Mexican-U.S. border to all trucking...
