With almost all of Alaska's goods moving through the port in Anchorage, it's hard to overstate how critical it is to the way of life here. Proud that the Biden admin is investing in projects to keep this hub in service for the long-haul. alaskabeacon.com/2023/08/15/on-…

Big win for American workers and drivers.

Under President Biden's leadership, we are laying the groundwork for a national network of EV chargers, and the private sector is stepping up with major moves like this plan to build another 30,000 chargers. theverge.com/2023/7/26/2380…

It's rare to have unemployment under 4% and inflation under 4% at the same time.

And over 800,000 of the 13 million new jobs created are manufacturing jobs.

This is President Biden’ economic vision leading to results.

Intense rainstorms have forced evacuations, closed downtowns, and stranded hundreds in Vermont. As the flooding recedes, roadways will need quick repair. I’ve been in touch with Gov. Scott, Sen. Sanders and Sen. Welch to offer USDOT’s support.

In Washougal, WA, we're addressing traffic backups and blocked rail crossings by funding a new bridge and underpass.

These improvements will reconnect the community, improve safety, help freight move more efficiently, and ensure first responders can get to those in need.

The project will provide a cleaner, more reliable ride to commuters across 21 counties in Texas who depend on their service daily. kbtx.com/2023/06/29/new…

Yesterday, cancellation rates were back below 2 percent -- showing good recovery since severe weather hit multiple hubs earlier this week. Today though, we're expecting weather disruptions at some airports. Check with your airline and follow The FAA ✈️ for the latest weather info.

Discrimination is wrong.

Using religion as an excuse to discriminate is wrong - and unconstitutional.

The Court’s minority is right: the Constitution is no license for a business to discriminate.

Today’s ruling will move America backward.

Yesterday, cancellation rates continued to fall as the airspace recovers from severe weather. United's disruptions are elevated but moving in the right direction.

FAA continues to monitor weather and smoke and is engaged closely with airlines to address potential disruptions.

This is at work.
