Since my election to Congress, I have worked as a member of the House Transportation & Infrastructure Committee to focus federal resources on transportation improvements in the Hudson Valley. 

 

I helped craft the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA 21), which delivered more than $11 billion in funding for New York’s highways and transit programs.

 

Through my work on the House Aviation Subcommittee, I have been actively promoting the growth of Stewart International Airport in New Windsor. The growth of Stewart Airport creates new jobs for area residents, brings new business and new travelers to the region, and brings new convenient travel options to those of us living in the Hudson Valley.
