Transportation and Infrastructure
As our communities continue to grow, there are increased demands for modernizing our transportation infrastructure including our airports, roads, and ports. Families and businesses rely on our infrastructure to get to work, take their children to school, and move products from companies to consumers.
As a member of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, I am committed to working in a bipartisan manner to ensure taxpayer dollars go toward meaningful infrastructure legislation. It’s important that we work to remove regulatory burdens that hold up essential projects. I will continue to fight for our constituents and will oppose any increases to the federal gas tax or vehicle miles tax, which affect daily commuters in Orange County.
Moreover, I will work with the Army Corps of Engineers to replenish the sand on our beaches and support their work on a 100-year flood protection to safeguard our coastal cities and free local homeowners from federal flood insurance payments.
