U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy released the following statement following President Donald J. Trump’s historic state of the union speech:
“President Trump’s remarkable speech tonight captured how this administration is delivering on its promises to improve the lives of American families.
“Under President Trump’s leadership, America is back – building bigger and stronger than ever before. We’ve slashed red tape and moved nearly $10 billion out the door to jumpstart massive infrastructure projects, get dirt moving again, and help communities like North Carolina recover faster than ever.
“Thanks to the President and Republicans in Congress, the Working Families Tax Cut Act is delivering real economic relief for working Americans. This includes key provisions like making cars more affordable by delivering up to $10,000 in tax deductions on auto loans for American made vehicles. And under President Trump, the gas we put into those cars is cheaper too!
“This administration also secured $12.5 billion to deploy a brand-new air traffic control system and modernize our skies. Work is rolling out across the country – delivering a safer, more efficient, and seamless flying experience for passengers.
“Our great President has made our country safe again after four years of the Biden Border Crisis that allowed tens of millions of illegals to pour into our country and terrorize our communities. Thanks to his leadership, we’re cracking down on dangerous foreigner drivers operating trucks, enforcing English language requirements for immigrant big rig drivers, and we’re rolling out new rules to eliminate fraud in trucking. A critical part of this work includes passing Dalilah’s Law without delay.
“I’m proud to work for the American people under the greatest President in history. Congratulations, President Trump, on a remarkable night!
The best is yet to come.”
