The bill contains parts of several measures he introduced or championed. Those provisions include the continuation of the Complete Streets program, making roads and streets safer and more accessible to bicyclists and other modes of transportation, the reauthorization of the Safe Streets for All program and the reauthorization of the Federal-State Partnership for Intercity Passenger Rail (FSP) Program and the Corridor ID program. Congressman Cohen made the following statement: “While I am disappointed this bill does not build on historic safety progress made by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, it continues and improves areas I have long prioritized. Memphis has a pedestrian fatality problem and that is addressed in this bill. I commend Chairman Graves and Ranking Member Larsen for shepherding this massive bipartisan bill to a very favorable conclusion.” The bill includes provisions of Congressman Cohen’s bills, including: The Complete Streets Act The Safe Streets and Roads for All Act Reauthorizing the Federal-State Partnership for Intercity Passenger Rail The Train FOOD Act and # # # | 1 | 2026-06-10T06:36:00Z | 2026-06-10T06:37:32Z |
