Rosekind Will Give Prepared Statement Before Congress Over Funding Concerns

Testifying before Congress Tuesday, NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind will give a statement on his agency's need for funding to properly function.

Rosekind's statement is one among those given by the witnesses called upon by the U.S. House Subcommittee on Commerce, Manufacturing and Trade to testify during its hearing over airbag supplier Takata and the safety issues surrounding the supplier's airbags, Reuters reports.

His prepared statement will address the NHTSA's analysis of the data from its investigation into Takata, as well as the aforementioned budget concerns his agency faces. Of the latter, Rosekind said the agency's budget is, when adjusted for inflation, 23 percent lower than a decade ago, making the agency's work difficult as technology pushes forward.
