Excerpt from Nomination of Jolene Moritz Molitoris to Be Administrator of the Federal Railroad Administration: Hearing Before the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, United States Senate, One Hundred Third Congress, First Session, July 13, 1993 U.S. Senate, Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, Washington, DC. The committee met, pursuant to notice, at 2:30 p.m. in room SR-253, Russell Senate Office Building, Hon. J. James Exon, presiding. Staff members assigned to this hearing: Donald M. Itzkoff, senior staff counsel, and Rebecca A. Kojm, professional staff member; and Emily J. Gallop and Susan Adams, minority professional staff members. Opening Statement of Senator Exon Senator Exon. The committee will please come to order. This afternoon the Commerce Committee will review the nomination of Jolene Moritz Molitoris of Ohio to be Administrator of the Federal Railroad Administration, commonly called the FRA. If confirmed, and I predict that she will be, Ms. Molitoris will be the first woman ever to serve as the FRA Administrator. The Federal Railroad Administration is responsible for carrying out all railroad safety laws of the United States. The FRA Administrator is charged with ensuring that these laws are uniformly administered and enforced. The Surface Transportation Subcommittee, which I chair, has focused very carefully on its oversight of these important railroad safety issues. In the 102d Congress the subcommittee considered and reauthorized the rail safety programs for the FRA as well as new initiatives in grade-crossing safety, both of which were enacted into law last year. I am pleased to note Ms. Molitoris´ leadership in the Operation Lifesaver in Ohio, an effort which tracks my own strong commitment in the Senate to providing for the safest possible railroad system in the United States. In addition to this vital emphasis on safety, the Surface Transportation Subcommittee has actively shaped the policies affecting the economic welfare of the railroad industry, its workers, and its passengers and users. In the last Congress the subcommittee debated the future role of Amtrak as part of its reauthorization responsibilities, leading to the passage of continuing legislation for our national railroad passenger system.
