“I’m incredibly honored and excited to serve on
this committee, because it puts me in a position to
advance our priorities of public safety and
economic development. The issues of
transportation and infrastructure are of
tremendous importance to my community, and I
look forward to working with my fellow committee
members to build a stronger and more prosperous
future for the residents of my district.”
“I am honored to represent not only my district and
state, but all Americans as a new member on the
T&I Committee. From bridges to airports, from
ports to mass transit, our nation’s transportation
infrastructure is the nervous system of a healthy
economy. Congress must do everything it can to
ensure that it is strong, efficient, and reliable. I
am proud to now be part of that effort in the
House and look forward to working hard on the
many transportation and infrastructure issues
that face our nation.”
“The backbone of this country’s economy is our
transportation and infrastructure. I am excited to
be a part of this committee to support the
strengthening of our infrastructure and improve
our competitiveness as a nation. This country
needs our continued support as we fight for
opportunities for economic growth and job
creation.”
“I am honored to join the ranks of the House
Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.
I will bring much-needed insight and experience
to the committee as we craft policy that will put
America’s infrastructure first. I am looking
forward to working with Chairman Shuster and
my other colleagues who serve on the committee.
The economic might of our nation is inextricably
linked to the capacity of our infrastructure to
meet the demands of our job creators conducting
commerce at home and abroad.”
