CSX names successor to VP-Federal Legislation role

CSX Corporation has announced the appointment of Anne Chettle Reinke as vice president-federal legislation, effective upon the retirement of Michael J. Ruehling.

Reinke, who joined CSX in 2003 as director-federal affairs, will report to Ellen M. Fitzsimmons, senior vice president-law and public affairs. From the company’s Washington, District of Columbia, offices, Reinke will direct all federal government affairs activities and continue to play a key role in shaping initiatives that support the quality and efficiency of rail transportation.

"We are fortunate to have someone of Anne’s calibre step into the role that Mike has managed with great insight, integrity and success for many years," Fitzsimmons said. "Mike, Anne and the entire Washington office have made significant contributions to a more complete understanding of the critical role of rail transportation in solving some of our nation’s most pressing logistics challenges."

Ruehling, who joined CSX in 1989 after serving on the staff of former US Senator Wendell Ford, was appointed vice president-state relations in 1995. He was named vice president-federal legislation in 2004 and will retire at the end of 2011.
