This committee includes representatives from Amtrak, labor organizations, nonprofit organizations representing passengers, and states funding state-supported routes. Amtrak must submit annual reports to Congress and make them publicly accessible, detailing the status of each recommendation, including those deemed impractical or impossible to implement.
