Dear Governor Schwarzenegger, Governor Rendell and Mayor Bloomberg:

Congratulations on establishing the new Building America’s Future infrastructure coalition.  You are on the right page.  The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is strongly supportive of transportation, energy and communications infrastructure modernization and expansion under our Let's Rebuild America program.  The Chamber, along with many major companies, is also working with the RAND Corporation Supply Chain Policy Center on a project to assess all of our nation’s infrastructure needs.

Attached is a speech I gave over the summer in Texas that addresses exactly this subject.

Please give it a quick read when you have a chance. You will notice that we are advocating for many of the same things.

Sincerely,
Thomas J. Donohue
