President Franklin D. Roosevelt pushed for the passage of the Transportation Act of 1940, which aimed to strengthen the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) by giving it greater authority to regulate the railroads and ensure fair rates. This act allowed the ICC to take a more active role in overseeing transportation services and aimed to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the nation's transportation system. It also addressed issues related to competition and the financial stability of railroads, enhancing the ICC's ability to enforce regulations and protect public interests.

Did women influence passage of the Equal Pay Act of 1963?

Yes, they did! Many women helped to make the Act possible over the course of generations. More specifically, Esther Peterson, the head of the Women's Bureau (and a friend of JFK) and Eleanor Roosevelt (the widow of former president Roosevelt) pressured JFK to establish a President's Commission on the Status of Women. He appointed Eleanor Roosevelt as Chair of the commission and Peterson as Executive vice-chair. The work of the commission is largely responsible for the passage of the Equal Pay Act of 1963.
