What this bill would do

This bill seeks to amend the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991. The primary goal is to prohibit specific types of pricing within value pricing programs. Specifically, it prevents the Secretary from establishing or maintaining programs that include congestion or cordon pricing.
