Passing biennial Water Resource Development Acts helps communities upgrade water infrastructure, protect ecosystems, strengthen ports and harbors and minimize flood risk. This year, @transportdems.bsky.social are working to deliver a new WRDA and support these investments.

While the Trump administration continues to attack FEMA, the T&I Committee advanced a bipartisan bill to reform the agency. @transportdems.bsky.social will continue fighting to make sure disaster relief is taken seriously and communities are protected.

Last year highlighted the urgent need to upgrade America’s air traffic control system. This year, @transportdems.bsky.social are committed to improving aviation safety and protecting travelers.

New year, same attacks on FEMA from the Trump administration. It's time to pass our FEMA Act and reform the Agency, not dismantle it. edition.cnn.com/2026/01/01/p...

World Cup host cities need world-class infrastructure to get teams and their fans to and from games. USMNT’s success on the field is inevitable, and this bill ensures the U.S. succeeds off the field, too. www.nytimes.com/athletic/685...

Instead of drone striking fishing boats, the Trump administration should stick to the Coast Guard’s proven, effective method of drug interdiction. maritime-executive.com/article/u-s-...

Americans love rail—and they deserve a rail network on par with our international counterparts. That starts with investments from Congress.

Yesterday, T&I Committee leaders introduced a bipartisan bill that would ensure air traffic controllers and other aviation safety workers get paid during future shutdowns. The stress and uncertainty these workers just endured cannot happen again.

Yesterday, the Trump administration launched another attack on the Clean Water Act. @transportdems.bsky.social are committed to protecting Americans’ access to clean, safe water—even if Trump’s EPA and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers wants to put polluters over people.

A new report confirms what we already know: investing in water infrastructure creates good-paying jobs and grows the economy. So why is the Trump administration proposing to cut billions of dollars to fund these investments? thevalueofwater.org/econimpact

Enough is enough: It’s time for Republicans to fix their healthcare crisis and end this shutdown. www.reuters.com/world/us/duf...

T&I Dems wrote to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers re: $11 billion in frozen funds for Corps projects that create jobs & grow the economy. The White House should stop playing politics with infrastructure, unfreeze these funds & open the government. democrats-transportation.house.gov/news/press-r...

Ranking Member @repricklarsen.bsky.social: "...the White House is using air traffic controllers, aviation safety technicians, pilots and the airlines as political cover while healthcare costs near maximum altitude for millions of Americans." democrats-transportation.house.gov/news/press-r...

Because Republicans would rather shut down the government than fix their healthcare crisis, tens of thousands of transportation workers are furloughed or working without pay—from air traffic controllers to aviation safety inspectors and technicians. It’s time to end this shutdown.

Canceling billions of dollars in projects in some states while bringing back workers to advance them in others? Doesn’t take a political scientist to see what’s going on here. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/eene...

Today, air traffic controllers missed their first full paycheck. No federal worker should have to worry about how they will pay their bills and put food on the table. It’s time for Republicans to end this shutdown.

The Big Ugly Law cut funding across Republican and Democratic districts to pay for tax cuts for the rich. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2025...

It’s not asking a lot: Fix the Republican healthcare crisis, end the shutdown and pay air traffic controllers. Watch Ranking Member @repricklarsen.bsky.social on @newdems.bsky.social's Fly-In Podcast.

Next week, air traffic controllers will miss their first full paycheck. Instead of fixing the Republican healthcare crisis, reopening the government and paying our essential safety workers, Trump is threatening job-creating infrastructure projects and handing out swag bags.

The Trump administration and Russ Vought would rather cut funding for jobs and economic growth than fix the healthcare crisis they created. Last week, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers was the latest casualty.

Secretary Noem: Cool your jets and fly commercial. democrats-transportation.house.gov/news/press-r...

Republicans control the White House, Senate and House. Why are they threatening to fire air traffic controllers during a shortage and not ending the shutdown? Democrats are ready to open the government and fix the Republican healthcare crisis.

Air traffic controllers are working without pay thanks to the Republican shutdown. Instead of adding strain to an understaffed workforce, the Trump administration should fix their healthcare crisis and open the government. Democrats are ready to work.

Air Traffic Controllers are currently working without pay thanks to the Trump administration’s refusal to fix their healthcare crisis and open the government. Today, @transportdems.bsky.social heard from National Air Traffic Controllers Association about the shutdown’s impacts on its workforce

Today, air traffic controllers missed part of their paycheck as a result of the shutdown. Still, Republicans would rather keep the government shut down than fix their healthcare crisis and work with Democrats to open the government.

Since day one, @transportdems.bsky.social have been willing to work with anyone dedicated to improving aviation safety.   Instead of threatening to fire air traffic controllers, the Trump administration should fix the healthcare crisis Republicans created and work with Democrats to end this shutdown

Air traffic controllers are working long hours without pay because of the Republican shutdown. Whenever Republicans come back from vacation, Democrats are here and ready to work.

The Trump administration keeps hurting Americans. In addition to shutting down the government and creating a healthcare crisis, the Trump administration is cancelling billions of dollars for disaster response and recovery. Nobody asked for this.

FEMA’s Disaster Relief Fund is solvent for now, but a prolonged shutdown could change that. Republicans must negotiate in good faith to come to an agreement that reopens the government to continue essential services and functions.

Coast Guard servicemembers are already lacking adequate living conditions—something T&I Dems have been trying to fix. Now, we’re asking them to carry out their missions without pay. @transportdems.bsky.social are ready to achieve a bipartisan solution to reopen the government and pay our Coasties.

While essential transportation safety employees continue to work, they are doing so without pay. Republicans should come to the negotiating table immediately to end this shutdown and compensate the workers protecting the safety of the traveling public.

Democrats are in DC to fix the healthcare crisis Republicans created. Republicans? They’re nowhere to be found.

Transportation, not troops, for Portland. 🌹 @repdexteror.bsky.social

The Trump Administration’s management of FEMA is a chaotic mess and threatens FEMA’s ability to help communities when disaster strikes. Instead of listening to employee concerns, Secretary Noem fired whistleblowers. They must be reinstated.

The Trump Administration continued to put corporate profits over people when it canceled a proposed rule guaranteeing airline passengers compensation for delayed flights. Last week, House Democrats demanded Secretary Duffy reverse the Administration’s decision.
