Transportation Equity Act

This bill directs the Department of Transportation (DOT) to reestablish an advisory committee to provide independent advice and recommendations to DOT on transportation equity issues.

In addition, DOT must appoint a full-time federal employee to serve as coordinator and act as the designated federal officer for the committee.
