(WASHINGTON, D.C.) – Please attribute the following statement to American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) President and CEO Dave Bauer:

“Sean Duffy’s decisive confirmation as secretary is a testament that bipartisanship remains key to advancing meaningful transportation policy.

“We are eager to partner with him and the U.S. Department of Transportation team to highlight the vital economic and safety benefits of robust federal investment in highways, bridges, public transit, and airports, and to reduce the regulatory burdens that increase project costs and delays.
