'For two years, Secretary Buttigieg downplayed and ignored crisis after crisis, while prioritizing topics of little relevance to our nation's transportation system,' the Florida Republican said. 'It is painfully clear to the American people that Secretary Buttigieg has little regard for the duties of the Secretary of Transportation.'
