2010 Presentation of Books to House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure

On Wednesday, October 28th, 2009 the U.S. Capitol Historical Society honored the work of the Members of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure and the staff at a dinner full of celebration, bipartisanship and camaraderie.

The books were presented at a reception on Wednesday, March 3rd in the Committee’s hearing room.

The book contains a record of the Committee Dinner with remarks by Chairman Oberstar, Ranking Member Mica, and our Keynote Speaker Ray LaHood, U.S. Secretary of Transportation.  It also includes a history of the Committee written by Dr. Fred Beuttler, Deputy Historian of the House, and the Toast to the Committee.  The Society also collected reflections from a number of Committee members on memorable moments while serving on the Committee and landmark legislation.
