Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chairman Sam Graves (R-MO) issued the below statement following the U.S. House of Representatives passage of H.R. 1, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

“Today House Republicans advanced crucial elements of President Trump’s America First Agenda by passing the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. The bill includes provisions from the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee to provide historic investments in the United States Coast Guard to strengthen our national and border security, as well as funding to modernize the nation’s outdated air traffic control system. We coupled these investments with money-saving measures like cutting wasteful Green New Deal spending, ensuring that electric vehicles begin contributing to the Highway Trust Fund, and more. I’m proud of the T&I Committee’s contributions to this bill, which is essential to enacting the President’s agenda.”
