We are leaving America's transportation systems in much better condition than we found them. I'm proud of all we have done together, and it has been an enormous honor to serve as your Secretary of Transportation.

- 🚗❌We hate traffic just as much as you do. We helped secure $195 million—the largest grant in South Carolina's history from the U.S. Department of Transportation—to kick off the Long Point Road Interchange Project! #LowcountryFirst scdailygazette.com/2024/10/21/195…Readers added contextRep. Nancy Mace voted against the infrastructure act that supplied this funding. x.com/repnancymace/s…
- Okay. NOW it's infrastructure week!
- Your budget plan cuts railroad safety inspections.
- I am hearing reports of some airlines only offering flight credits to passengers for cancelled flights. Let me be clear — you are entitled to get your money back promptly if your flight is cancelled and you don't take a rebooking.
- I’m honored to serve as Secretary of Transportation and help build the kind of infrastructure that creates jobs, empowers all, and keeps travelers & workers safe. It’s time to get to work.
- Congresswoman, in what way do you believe that your support helped this project? We chose it because it's a good project, and funded it using President Biden's infrastructure package, which you voted against.Great meeting with Glenwood Springs City Councilor and former Mayor Jonathan Godes. We have secured over $51.4 million for the South Bridge. Was thrilled to hear about nearly $30 million in costs savings in addition and that my support has helped make this project a reality.
Readers added contextBoebert hasn’t secured 51.4 million dollars for this bridge. The money came from a Biden-Harris grant that is part of the “Rural Surface Transportation Grant Program”, which itself is a part of the“Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act” which Boebert voted against. postindependent.com/news/city-of-g… clerk.house.gov/Votes/2021208 ridewithvia.com/resources/usdo… - We're working on the future of America's passenger rail system—funding high-speed rail projects in the West and expanding service for communities across the country. Get your ticket to ride!
- Good morning! Gas prices are going down.
- Replying to @elonmuskNo one is shutting down the airspace and FAA doesn’t block legitimate rescue and recovery flights. If you’re encountering a problem give me a call.
- Very, very proud of our President tonight.
- A great way to ease supply chain issues would be to make more things in America.
- As my time as Secretary of Transportation concludes, I’m proud of all we’ve accomplished: tens of thousands of infrastructure projects, millions of manufacturing and construction jobs, & stronger, more resilient communities across America. Thank you for this opportunity to serve.
- “This sacred task of perfecting our union is not about me, it’s about you. Your families. Your futures.” Tonight’s address reminded me once again why I am so proud to serve under the leadership of a deeply good man who is also a great American president.
