"When it comes to systemic racism, the United States' federal government was not only an instigator, but a perpetrator.

Various federal agencies, including the Federal Highway Administration, have worked to segregate and economically stagnate African American neighborhoods."

The FAST Act (Fixing America's Surface Transportation - Act) was set to expire at the end of 2020, but Congress recently extended it for one more year. The next FAST ACT equivalent should include provisions focused on equity in mobility and surface transportation

From both logical and ethical perspectives, FHWA has helped perpetuate social inequities, economic stagnation, and public health disparities in African American communities and therefore FHWA should provide the funding to fix these aforementioned problems.  https://www.blackandurban.com/transportationcontent/social-reform-through-federal-highway-cap-projects
