Introductory Statement on S. 5264

Senator Reed introduced S. 5264, the Bus Operator Safety and Security Act, with Senator Hawley, a bipartisan bill to protect bus drivers from violent attacks. It would require protective barriers around the driver’s seat on new buses bought with federal money. Reed described bus operators as the backbone of the nation’s public transportation and said the bill addresses a growing safety concern in the transit industry. This was an introductory statement, so the discussion was limited to remarks announcing the bill.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
