Marc understands that a strong transportation system that keeps pace with our population growth is essential for the Metroplex to stay competitive in today’s economy. Without effective transportation infrastructure, North Texas businesses are at a competitive disadvantage and local families will suffer increased traffic jams, vehicle damage, and unsafe roads. That is why Marc has fought to bring much- needed federal transportation funding home to Texas. He will continue to fight for the resources to improve the highways, bridges and transit systems we rely on.

• Since being elected to Congress, Marc has fought to bring over federal transportation and infrastructure grants home to North Texas. These grants have funded new roads, rail projects, bridges, and tunnels; airport upgrades; and lighting and safety updates for our highways. 
• In 2016, Marc helped secure a $150 million Federal Transit Administration grant for the construction of the TEX Rail project, a 27-mile commuter rail project that will connect downtown Fort Worth to DFW Airport.
