Pete Buttigieg is facing his biggest test yet
Fox News
The collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore is presenting Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg a new challenge, the latest in a long string of crises.
Thomas Catenacci is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
"The path to normalcy will not be easy, it will not be quick, it will not be inexpensive, but we will rebuild together," Buttigieg told reporters on Tuesday, flanked by Moore, local officials and local lawmakers.
One day later, he called on both Democrats and Republicans to "stand together" to approve a funding package to aid the recovery and rebuilding operation. And on Thursday, Buttigieg announced that the Department of Transportation (DOT) would immediately make $60 million in emergency federal funds available for the initial stages of that effort.
