SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Background: The Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) of 
1993, as amended by the GPRA Modernization Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111-
352), requires that Federal agencies revise and update their strategic 
plan at the beginning of each new presidential term, and in doing so, 
solicit input from interested stakeholders. The draft DOT Strategic 
Framework reflects the Secretary's priorities for achieving DOT's 
mission through six strategic goals:
    <bullet> Safety: Make our transportation system safer for all 
people. Work toward a future where transportation-related serious 
injuries and fatalities are eliminated.
    <bullet> Economic Strength & Global Competitiveness: Grow an 
inclusive and sustainable economy. Invest in our transportation system 
to provide American workers and businesses reliable and efficient 
access to good-paying jobs, resources, and markets.
    <bullet> Equity: Reduce inequities. Support and engage people and 
communities to promote safe, affordable, accessible, and multimodal 
access to opportunities and services while reducing transportation-
related disparities and adverse community impacts and health effects.
    <bullet> Climate & Sustainability: Tackle the climate crisis by 
ensuring that transportation plays a central role in the solution. 
Substantially reduce greenhouse gas emissions and transportation-
related pollution and build more resilient and sustainable 
transportation systems to benefit and protect communities.
    <bullet> Transformation: Design for the future. Invest in purpose-
driven research and innovation to meet the challenge of the present and 
modernize a transportation system of the future that serves everyone 
today and in the decades to come.
    <bullet> Organizational Excellence: Strengthen our world class 
organization. Advance the Department's mission by establishing 
policies, processes, and an inclusive and innovative culture to 
effectively serve communities and responsibly steward the public's 
resources.
    These strategic goals are supported by strategic objectives that 
reflect the outcomes DOT is seeking to achieve. The DOT's draft 
strategic goals and objectives are detailed in the draft DOT Strategic 
Framework, which can be accessed at <a href="https://www.transportation.gov/dot-strategic-plan">https://www.transportation.gov/dot-strategic-plan</a>.
    Written Comments: The U.S. DOT invites the public to provide 
comments to inform the development of the U.S. DOT Strategic Plan for 
FY 2022-26. In particular, comments may respond to any or all of the 
following questions:
    1. What strategies or priorities should the U.S. DOT adopt to 
achieve the Department's strategic goals and objectives?
    2. How should U.S. DOT measure progress towards those priorities?
    3. What emerging challenges or opportunities in transportation 
warrant

additional U.S. DOT activities or investments?
    4. How can U.S. DOT best coordinate its activities with Federal, 
State, local, tribal, labor, private sector, academic, non-profit, 
international and other stakeholders?
    5. How can U.S. DOT best utilize additional programs and 
authorities in the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act to accomplish 
the goals laid out in the strategic plan?
    The Department anticipates that the final U.S. DOT Strategic Plan 
for FY 2022-2026 will be posted on the DOT website in February 2022.
    Public Comment: DOT will consider input and revise the draft DOT 
Strategic Plan as appropriate.

    Signed in Washington, DC, on November 29, 2021.
Christopher Coes,
Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for Transportation Policy.
