                              Introduction

    This booklet details the Members of the Committee on 
Transportation and Infrastructure and its predecessor 
Committees, and their organization. The U.S. House of 
Representatives, Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure 
exercises legislative authority over a broad spectrum of the 
national activities that influence the development of America 
and the lives of its people.
    The Committee can trace its roots back to the early 
beginnings of the Republic, and its influence has stimulated 
national growth and prosperity; from the first U.S. public 
works project in the First Congress in 1789--a lighthouse on 
Cape Henry in Hampton Roads, Virginia--to the present day.
    Prior to the Legislative Reorganization Act of 1946 (Pub. 
L. 97-601) the jurisdictional aspects of the Committee can be 
traced to the following predecessor Committees: The Committee 
on Public Buildings and Grounds; the Committee on Rivers and 
Harbors; the Committee on Roads and Canals; and the Committee 
on Levees.


               committee on public buildings and grounds


    The Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds was 
established in 1837 with jurisdiction over ``subjects relating 
to the public edifices and grounds within the city of 
Washington.'' The jurisdiction was expanded slightly in 1869 to 
include the care of the Restaurant within the Capitol. In 1871, 
the jurisdiction was further expanded to include ``all the 
public buildings constructed by the United States.'' Again, in 
1880, the Committee's jurisdiction was clarified further to 
include ``public works and occupied or improved grounds of the 
United States, other than appropriations thereof.''


                    committee on rivers and harbors


    The Committee on Rivers and Harbors was established in 1883 
with jurisdiction to study measures ``making appropriations for 
rivers and harbors.'' In 1920, the Committee was expanded to 
include bills ``authorizing the improvement of river and 
harbors, '' which had been up until that time held with the 
Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce. The jurisdiction 
was further expanded in 1911 to include the functions of the 
Committee on Levees and Improvements of the Mississippi River 
(originally, Committee on Levees). In 1916 certain jurisdiction 
interests of the Committee were moved to the Committee on Flood 
Control.


                     committee on roads and canals


    The Committee on Roads and Canals was established in 1831, 
and it was determined that its establishment would ``lead to 
the impression that the House was disposed to systematize 
internal improvement, and with it the present high duties on 
imports, &c.'' During the 25th Congress (1837-39) the House 
rejected a proposal to change the name to the Committee on 
Public Improvement, but in 1869 it approved a motion to change 
the name to the Committee on Railways and Canals.
    The Committee reported legislation concerning the survey, 
construction, and improvement of canals within the United 
States as well as a canal across the Isthmus of Panama. The 
Committee's jurisdiction also included improvements in river 
navigation, construction of bridges over rivers, maintenance of 
breakwaters and harbors associated with water routes, and the 
subscription of the United States to capital stock in canal 
companies. It reported proposals for the construction of roads, 
such as the Cumberland Road and a Columbus and Sandusky 
Turnpike, and methods of financing them, primarily through 
land-grants. As early as the 20th Congress (1827-28) the 
committee reported legislation to aid the construction of 
railroads including the granting of charters to railroad 
companies.


                     committee on pacific railroads


    On July 1, 1862, President Abraham Lincoln signed a bill 
authorizing the construction of a transcontinental railroad 
between the Missouri River and California. Construction was to 
be aided by land grants and Government loans. During the 1850's 
the Army Topological Engineers had explored various routes for 
such a railroad and from as early as 1855 select House 
committees had been responsible for legislation regarding the 
construction of a transcontinental railroad. On March 2, 1865, 
the standing Committee on Pacific Railroads was established and 
assigned jurisdiction over subjects relating ``to the railroads 
and telegraph lines between the Mississippi River and the 
Pacific coast.'' By 1911, the Committee had become largely 
inactive, and it was terminated.


                           committee on roads


    The Committee on Roads was established in 1913 with 
jurisdiction over ``matters relating to the construction or 
maintenance of roads, other than the appropriations therefor.'' 
The Committee on Roads was responsible for legislation 
providing for Federal aid to the States for the construction of 
rural post roads, and the Federal highways. In 1921, the 
Committee reported the Federal Highway Act.


                          committee on levees


    The Committee on Levees was established in 1875 to inquire 
into building and repairing levees on the Mississippi River. On 
November 7, 1877, the Committee's name was changed to the 
Committee on Levees and Improvements of the Mississippi River. 
The jurisdiction included building and repairing levees as well 
as making other improvements on the Mississippi River. In 1911, 
the jurisdiction of the Committee was merged into the Committee 
on Rivers and Harbors.


                       committee on flood control


    The Committee on Flood Control was established in 1916 and 
merged the Committee on Rivers and Harbors, and the Committee 
on Levees and Improvements of the Mississippi River. The 
Committee's jurisdiction focused on flood control and 
prevention.


               committee on merchant marine and fisheries


    The Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries was 
established on December 21, 1887. The Committee's jurisdiction 
encompassed the merchant marine, including all matters relating 
to transportation by water, the Coast Guard, life-saving 
service, lighthouses, lightships, ocean derelicts, the Coast 
and Geodetic Survey, the Panama Canal, and fisheries.
    In 1919, the Committee was given jurisdiction over wireless 
telegraphy (radio), and in 1932 its name was changed to the 
Committee on Merchant Marine, Radio, and Fisheries. After a 
dispute with the Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce, 
the jurisdiction over radio services was transferred to that 
committee in 1935 and the term ``radio'' was dropped from the 
name of the Merchant Marine and Fisheries Committee.
    In 1995, during restructuring of the Committees, the 
jurisdiction of the Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries 
was split between the Committee on Transportation and 
Infrastructure and the Committee on Natural Resources.


                       committee on public works


    With the Legislative Reorganization Act of 1946 (Pub. L. 
97-601) the Committee on Public Works was established and 
merged the jurisdictional authorities of the Committee on 
Public Buildings and Grounds; the Committee on Rivers and 
Harbors; the Committee on Roads; and the Committee on Levees.
    In 1975, the Committee's name was changed to become the 
Committee on Public Works and Transportation.
    In 1995, the name was again changed to become the Committee 
on Transportation and Infrastructure. The Committee also gained 
additional jurisdictional authorities from the Committee on 
Merchant Marine and Fisheries (est. 1887) when that Committee 
was dissolved.
    When listing the Members of the Committee, where there is a 
defined Majority/Minority split, the Members are listed in 
columns based upon party designation (generally around the 46th 
Congress). Members whose party designation differs from their 
caucus are additionally designated. Changes to the initial 
roster are denoted after the line. Third Parties are listed 
under the Minority side after a space.
    Abbreviations for the parties are as follows:

               Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds

=======================================================================



    The standing Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds was 
established in 1837, replacing the Select Committee on Public 
Buildings which had been created in 1819. This new five-member 
committee was empowered ``to consider all subjects relating to 
the public edifices and grounds within the city of Washington 
which may be referred to them, and report their opinion 
thereon, together with such propositions relating thereto as 
may seem to them expedient.'' \1\ In 1871, Representative Henry 
L. Dawes of Massachusetts presented a resolution which 
increased membership on the committee to nine and gave it 
jurisdiction over ``all the public buildings constructed by the 
United States.'' \2\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Further changes were made in 1880, when the committee was 
expanded to 16 members and its jurisdiction expanded to cover 
``the public buildings and occupied or improved grounds of the 
United States, other than appropriations therefore.'' \3\ The 
jurisdiction of the committee did not change after 1880, but 
the number of members was increased several times.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    The committee reported legislation for the construction 
throughout the country of public buildings, including customs 
houses, post offices, and Federal court houses; the erection of 
monuments and memorials; the purchase of property for public 
use; improvements to public property; and compensation for 
workers erecting public buildings. During the early years of 
the committee, much of the legislation reported had to do with 
constructing and improving public buildings in Washington, DC, 
and commissioning artists to create art work for those 
buildings.\4\

                    Committee on Rivers and Harbors

=======================================================================



    Established in December 1883, the Committee on Rivers and 
Harbors was given jurisdiction over subjects relating to the 
improvements of rivers and harbors and had the responsibility 
of reporting the river and harbor bill, which previously had 
been handled by the Committee on Commerce. The Committee's 
jurisdiction changed over time. When the Committee on Levees 
and Improvements of the Mississippi River was terminated in 
1911 its responsibilities were transferred to the Committee on 
Rivers and Harbors. In 1916 the subject of flood control was 
removed from the committee's authority and assigned to the new 
Committee on Flood Control. After 1920 the committee could no 
longer report appropriation bills for rivers and harbors and 
its legislative authority was limited to reporting only bills 
that authorized improvements to rivers and harbors.
    These shifts in authority still left many subjects within 
the jurisdiction of the committee. These included improvement 
of watersheds and dams thereon, construction of locks on 
navigable streams, construction and maintenance of equipment 
for river improvements, erosion of banks on navigable streams, 
pollution of navigable waters, intrastate inland waterways, and 
navigation of international boundary streams. The committee was 
terminated early in the 80th Congress on January 3, 1947. Its 
successor was the Committee on Public Works.\1\

                     Committee on Roads and Canals

=======================================================================



    The committee originated as a select Committee on Roads and 
Canals during the 14th Congress (1815) and was appointed at 
each succeeding Congress until December 1831 when Charles 
Mercer of Virginia made a motion to establish a standing 
Committee on the subject. Although an objection was raised that 
the select committee had managed the subject adequately, and 
that the establishment of a standing Committee on roads and 
canals would ``lead to the impression that the House was 
disposed to systematize internal improvement, and with it the 
present high duties on imports, &c., '' the motion to create 
the standing committee passed by a vote of 96 to 90. During the 
25th Congress (1837-39) the House rejected a proposal to change 
the name to the Committee on Public Improvement, but in 1869 it 
approved a motion to change the name to the Committee on 
Railways and Canals.
    The committee reported legislation concerning the survey, 
construction, and improvement of canals within the United 
States as well as a canal across the Isthmus of Panama. The 
committee's jurisdiction also included improvements in river 
navigation, construction of bridges over rivers, maintenance of 
breakwaters and harbors associated with water routes, and the 
subscription of the United States to capital stock in canal 
companies. It reported proposals for the construction of roads, 
such as the Cumberland Road and a Columbus and Sandusky 
Turnpike, and methods of financing them, primarily through 
land-grants. As early as the 20th Congress (1827-28) the 
committee reported legislation to aid the construction of 
railroads including the granting of charters to railroad 
companies.
    The Committee on Roads was created in 1913 with 
jurisdiction over matters relating ``to the construction or 
maintenance of roads, other than appropriations therefore.'' 
The statement outlining the committee's jurisdiction contained 
the proviso that measures for specific roads could not be 
included in bills for general legislation, nor could any bill 
relating to a specific road ``embrace a provision in relation 
to any other specific road.'' During the first decade of its 
existence, the committee reported bills authorizing aid to the 
States in the construction of rural post roads, and with the 
1921 Federal Highway Act in the construction and maintenance of 
highways, forest roads, trails, and rural post roads. Under the 
Legislative Reorganization Act of 1946, the committee was 
disbanded and its jurisdiction included in those of the new 
Committee on Public Works.

                     Committee on Pacific Railroads

=======================================================================



    On July 1, 1862, President Abraham Lincoln signed a bill 
authorizing the construction of a transcontinental railroad 
between the Missouri River and California. Construction was to 
be aided by land grants and Government loans. During the 1850's 
the Army Topological Engineers had explored various routes for 
such a railroad and from as early as 1855 select House 
committees had been responsible for legislation regarding the 
construction of a transcontinental railroad. On March 2, 1865, 
the standing Committee on Pacific Railroads was established and 
assigned jurisdiction over subjects relating ``to the railroads 
and telegraph lines between the Mississippi River and the 
Pacific coast.'' \1\ By 1911, the committee had become largely 
inactive, and it was terminated.\2\

                           Committee on Roads

=======================================================================



    The Committee on Roads was created in 1913 with 
jurisdiction over matters relating ``to the construction or 
maintenance of roads, other than appropriations therefore.'' 
The statement outlining the committee's jurisdiction contained 
the proviso that measures for specific roads could not be 
included in bills for general legislation, nor could any bill 
relating to a specific road ``embrace a provision in relation 
to any other specific road.'' During the first decade of its 
existence, the committee reported bills authorizing aid to the 
States in the construction of rural post roads, and with the 
1921 Federal Highway Act in the construction and maintenance of 
highways, forest roads, trails, and rural post roads. Under the 
Legislative Reorganization Act of 1946, the committee was 
disbanded and its jurisdiction included in those of the new 
Committee on Public Works.

                  Committee on the Mississippi Levees

=======================================================================



    The committee was established during the 44th Congress on 
December 10, 1875, at the prompting of Representative Randall 
Gibson of Louisiana, to inquire into building and repairing 
levees on the Mississippi River.
    On November 7, 1877, in the 45th Congress, the committee's 
name was changed to the Committee on Levees and Improvements of 
the Mississippi River. This was done by changing the name of 
its predecessor, the Committee on the Mississippi Levees. The 
purposes of the committee included building and repairing 
levees as well as making other improvements on the Mississippi 
River. The committee was terminated in the 62nd Congress on 
April 5, 1911. Its successor was the Committee on Rivers and 
Harbors.\1\

                       Committee on Flood Control

=======================================================================



    The committee was authorized February 3, 1916, early in the 
64th Congress, and was given jurisdiction over subjects 
relating to flood control. In the previous two Congresses such 
flood control matters had been entirely under the jurisdiction 
of the Committee on Rivers and Harbors and some flood control 
issues had been in the jurisdiction of the Committee on Levees 
and Improvements of the Mississippi River before that committee 
was abolished in 1911. The Committee on Flood Control was 
terminated early in the 80th Congress on January 3, 1947. Its 
successor was the Committee on Public Works.\1\

               Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries

=======================================================================


    The Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries was 
established on December 21, 1887. The House Rules defined its 
jurisdiction as those matters concerning the merchant marine. 
This included all matters relating to transportation by water, 
the Coast Guard, life-saving service, lighthouses, lightships, 
ocean derelicts, the Coast and Geodetic Survey, the Panama 
Canal, and fisheries. Legislation referred to the committee 
also included matters involving seamen (their assignments, 
wages, treatment, and health) and officers (their titles, 
conduct, and licensing); the naming, measuring, licensing, and 
registering of vessels; navigation and related laws; pleasure 
yachts; collisions at sea, as well as international 
arrangements to prevent them; coasting districts; maritime 
schools; and, taxes, fines, and penalties on vessels. The 
committee has also regulated shipping in the Philippines and 
Hawaii. As did most committees of the House, the Merchant 
Marine and Fisheries Committee created subcommittees to handle 
portions of its jurisdiction.
    In 1919 the committee was given jurisdiction over wireless 
telegraphy (radio), and in 1932 its name was changed to the 
Committee on Merchant Marine, Radio, and Fisheries. After a 
dispute with the Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce, 
the jurisdiction over radio services was transferred to that 
committee in 1935 and the term ``radio'' was dropped from the 
name of the Merchant Marine and Fisheries Committee. Under the 
Legislative Reorganization Act of 1946 the jurisdiction of the 
committee was enlarged and more fully defined. Its formal 
statement of jurisdiction read as follows:
        a) Merchant marine generally. b) Coast and Geodetic 
        Survey. c) Coast Guard, including lifesaving service, 
        lighthouses, lightships, and ocean derelicts. d) 
        Fisheries and wildlife, including research, 
        restoration, refuges, and conservation. e) Measures 
        relating to the regulation of common carriers by water 
        (except matters subject to the jurisdiction of the 
        Interstate Commerce Commission) and to the inspection

                       Committee on Public Works

=======================================================================



    Under the Legislative Reorganization Act of 1946 the 
Committees on Public Buildings and Grounds, Rivers and Harbors, 
Roads and Canals, and Flood Control were combined to form the 
Committee on Public Works. Its jurisdiction from the beginning 
of the 80th Congress (1947-48) through the 90th Congress (1967-
68) remained the same:
    (a) Flood control and improvement of rivers and harbors. 
(b) Measures relating to the Capitol Building and the Senate 
and House Office Buildings. (c) Measures relating to the 
construction or maintenance of roads and post roads, other than 
appropriations therefore; but it shall not be in order for any 
bill providing general legislation in relation to roads to 
contain any provision for any specific road, nor for any bill 
in relation to a specific road to embrace a provision in 
relation to any other specific road. (d) Measures relating to 
the construction or reconstruction, maintenance, and care of 
the buildings and grounds of the Botanic Gardens, the Library 
of Congress, and the Smithsonian Institute. (e) Measures 
relating to the purchase of sites and construction of post 
offices, customhouses, Federal courthouses, and Government 
buildings within the District of Columbia. (f) Oil and other 
pollution of navigable waters. (g) Public buildings and 
occupied or improved grounds of the United States generally. 
(h) Public reservations and parks within the District of 
Columbia, including Rock Creek Park and the Zoological Park. 
(i) Public works for the benefit of navigation, including 
bridges and dams (other than international bridges and dams). 
(j) Water power.\1\

    The four original committees retained their separate 
identities but were reduced to subcommittees. In addition, the 
committee created subcommittees for Beach Erosion, 80th 
Congress (1947-48) and for Watershed Development, 86th-90th 
Congresses (1959-68). Special Subcommittees included those: to 
Investigate Questionable Trade Practices, 80th Congress; to 
Study Civil Works, 82nd Congress (1951-52); on the Federal-Aid 
Highway Program, 86th-90th Congresses; and on Economic 
Development Programs, 89th-90th Congresses (1965-68). Ad Hoc 
Committees were established on Montana Flood Damage, 88th 
Congress (1963-64); on Appalachian Regional Development, 88th-
90th Congresses; and on the 1967 Alaska Exposition, 89th 
Congress.\2\
