Bill Summary
A BILL To amend title 49, United States Code, to require Amtrak to include information on base pay and bonus compensation of certain Amtrak executives, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill requires Amtrak to enhance its reporting transparency by mandating that the company not only submit reports to Congress but also publish detailed compensation information for its executive leadership team on its public website. Specifically, Amtrak must disclose the annual base pay and bonus compensation for top executives, including the CEO, president, and other officers, along with a clear explanation of the criteria and metrics used to determine bonus compensation. By requiring this information to be made publicly available, the bill aims to increase accountability and provide greater insight into how Amtrak compensates its top leadership. The legislation amends an existing section of Title 49 of the United States Code, which governs transportation, to add these new reporting requirements. The bill represents a move towards greater transparency in the operations of Amtrak, a federally chartered corporation that operates passenger rail services across the United States.
