The Railway Supply Institute (RSI) appointed Thomas Jensen as its new president. He brings more than 30 years of government affairs, public policy, and transportation advocacy experience.

As president, Jensen will ensure RSI continues to be an effective advocate for the passenger and freight railway supplier industry. “Passenger and freight and rail networks are essential to economic growth, supply chain resilience, and global competitiveness. The companies that supply this industry provide critical innovations, products, and services that keep rail moving every day,” he said.

Previously, Jensen held executive government relations positions at America250, building and construction materials manufacturing firm Amrize, autonomous trucking technology company TuSimple, and United Parcel Service (UPS), where he worked for more than three decades. He has served as chairman of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Transportation, Infrastructure & Logistics Committee and the American Highway Users Alliance.

Greg Dalpe, chair of RSI’s Board of Directors, welcomed Jensen to the leadership team. “Tom brings decades of experience navigating complex transportation policy issues and building strong relationships across government, industry, and stakeholder communities. His extensive background in advocacy and public affairs makes him uniquely qualified to advance RSI’s policy priorities and strengthen our position as the voice of the railway supply industry,” he said.
