Transportation infrastructure is vital to the health and success of our communities and Nation. Of all the states in the Union contributing to the economy through trade, Texas is the largest exporter and grosses over $100 billion a year in foreign trade. Part of our State's success is attributed to our transportation network. In addition, the maintenance and repair of our transportation infrastructure creates additional opportunities for job creation and economic growth.

To this end, I continue to support the improvement of existing transportation infrastructure in the 4th District as well as the development of state-of-the-art transportation methods such as high-speed rail.
