Norton, who serves as ranking member of the House Highways and Transit Subcommittee, is one of the Big Four House Transportation leaders who wrote the current five-year surface transportation authorization, the FAST Act, which increased funding for pedestrian projects and created a new non-motorized safety grant to assist and incentivize states to reduce pedestrian deaths. Bike to School Day is an annual celebration of a time-honored child-parent tradition, Norton said. Today's event points up the need for localities like the District to use federal funding to invest in infrastructure that ensures safe walkways for pedestrians. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
