Washington, D.C. – Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chairman Sam Graves (R-MO) released the following statement after the U.S. Senate confirmed Sean Duffy to serve as the United States Secretary of Transportation: 

“I want to congratulate Sean Duffy on his confirmation to serve as the next United States Secretary of Transportation. I am confident that under the Secretary’s leadership we can improve America’s infrastructure by focusing our investments on core projects like roads and bridges, streamlining project delivery, and getting the Department back to the fundamental missions of federal transportation programs – moving people and goods safely and efficiently.  President Trump is a builder and a strong supporter of infrastructure, and I look forward to working closely with Secretary Duffy to help carry out the President’s vision for the nation’s transportation network as we begin efforts to craft the next surface transportation bill.”
