DOT Advisory Committee on Transportation Equity DOT is proud to announce the
reestablishment
of the Advisory
Committee on Transportation Equity (ACTE), the first federal advisory committee established under Secretary Pete Buttigieg. The ACTE is a direct legacy of Secretary Anthony Foxx who first established it in 2016. The goal of this committee is to provide
independent advice and recommendations to the Secretary about comprehensive, interdisciplinary issues related to civil rights and transportation equity in the planning, design, research,
policy, and advocacy contexts. DOT is soliciting applications
for membership and would love your partnership spreading the word to your networks. The ACTE will consist of up to 25 members with cross-cutting experience at the intersections of
civil rights, housing, health care, disability access, and environmental justice. It is expected that the Committee will meet quarterly. To apply, interested parties will need to submit a statement of interest and a statement of qualifications (such as a resume) to
equity@dot.gov. Applications are due by
COB on June 15. Join Us: DOT Equity Events ICYMI, DOT will be hosting two equity-focused virtual events in the coming days. On Thursday, May 19 from 1:30pm – 2:30pm EDT, join our
