Happening Now: President Biden delivers remarks on new actions to strengthen supply chains, lower costs for families, and help Americans get the goods they need. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Happy Thanksgiving! We’re especially thankful this year for family, friends, and good health, and wishing all the best from our family to yours.

Two years ago, @POTUS signed the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law—delivering the largest investment in our nation's infrastructure in generations. Projects are underway in every state and territory, rebuilding America and creating good-paying construction jobs along the way.

Two years and 40,000 projects later—we're just getting started.

Important meeting with @SecretaryPete and @ZelenskyyUa in which we reiterated that the US will continue to support Ukraine against Russia’s unprovoked aggression. We discussed infrastructure restoration and the vital work to be done for Ukraine’s economic recovery.

This is a Big Deal. The investments we're making today, like the Gateway Project, will reduce travel delays for millions of people.

We're finally delivering on improvements to passenger rail that Americans have been seeking for years. @POTUS' investment in the Northeast Corridor will make our busiest passenger railroad safer, faster, and more reliable for over 200 million riders every year.

Dirt is flying and projects are moving. We're working on thousands of infrastructure improvements across the U.S. Our investments in New York are connecting millions of people to opportunity and delivering game-changing transportation projects that will grow America's economy.

For generations, lack of transit options has held back residents of East Harlem from equal access to jobs, education, and better opportunities. We're changing that. Today, our department is announcing $3.4B to build the Second Avenue Subway up to 125th street.

Extending New York's Q line to East Harlem has been a project decades in the making. The new stations we're funding will make it easier and more affordable for residents in this area to get to work, school, medical appointments, and so much more.

Delighted to mark the start to construction on a key piece of the new Hudson River Tunnel. This is an essential component of the Gateway Program, which will replace the tunnel millions of Americans use every year to travel between New Jersey and New York.

Tens of thousands of infrastructure projects are being built across America thanks to President Biden's infrastructure plan. Time to remind everyone how this funding happened!

We all count on America's ports every day. Today, we're announcing funding for 41 port projects nationwide—improving critical links in our national supply chain to create jobs and help to lower the cost of goods. transportation.gov/briefing-room/…

Traffic fatalities hit a 16-year high in 2021. Today, @USDOT announced $86 million in BIL funding for 235 projects to make the nation’s roadways safer and more accessible. The BIL continues to deliver for communities across the country. democrats-transportation.house.gov/news/press-rel…

Thrilled to celebrate this new bus stop, which will drop children directly in front of their Head Start here in Memphis with Dr. Yvette Taylor from @FTA_DOT and Gary Rosenfeld @RideMATA. Wonderful to have @SHSFunds partner with @NatlHeadStart @APTA_Transit to bring it to life.

Con los fondos disponibles gracias al plan de infraestructura del Presidente Biden, seguimos en marcha con la inversión federal en transporte público más grande en toda la historia de EE.UU. twitter.com/Univision23/st…

Under @POTUS, we're building a passenger rail system Americans can be proud of. Projects like the Brightline train in Florida are demonstrating that we can expect and deliver more when it comes to passenger rail in this country.

The entire Biden administration is working to eliminate junk fees across the board & protect families from unfair charges. Visit FlightRights.gov to see how USDOT is strengthening passengers’ rights and improving airlines’ customers service. cnbc.com/2023/10/11/whi…

We're building an infrastructure decade with no community left behind. We announced funding to develop solutions and improve air service in 20 smaller communities across 16 states. transportation.gov/briefing-room/…

Mental health is health. On World Mental Health Day and every day, the Biden-Harris Administration is committed to expanding access to mental health care so every American has access to the resources they need to heal, recover, and thrive.

Nearly 200 House Republicans voted to cut programs that millions of hardworking Americans count on—including rail safety inspections and air traffic control operations. It’s time for House Republicans to honor their word and make good on the deal they made with the President.

This is a step in the right direction to improve air travel for the millions of air travelers each year who depend on a wheelchair to get around. washingtonpost.com/travel/2023/09…

We're rehabilitating Staten Island's Arthur Kill Lift Bridge, an important rail link that supports New York's largest container terminal. The upgrades will enable safer, more reliable freight operations at this rail-to-marine-highway intersection. nj.com/news/2023/09/f…

America needs a confirmed Administrator, and Mike Whitaker is the right leader for the job. I hope the Senate will act quickly to confirm him to lead FAA at this critical time in US aviation.

Happy Birthday to President Jimmy Carter, an extraordinary American whose living example of humility, decency and servant leadership is more relevant than ever in our times.

I just signed a law to keep the government open for 47 days. There’s plenty of time to pass Government funding bills for the next fiscal year, and I strongly urge Congress to get to work right away. The American people expect their government to work. Let’s make sure it does.

We’re adding air traffic controllers, but if House Republicans shut down the government, it would halt ATC training in its tracks—setting us back months on hiring the trained professionals who keep our airspace safe. whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
