We will continue to build on the success of this bipartisan effort and demonstrate that Americans’ confidence in air travel, including future technologies, is well-founded in an unmatched record of safety and reliability. (3/4) — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves

Cooperation and partnership between airlines, passengers, policymakers, government, and industry experts have produced our world-leading track record of aviation safety - this legislation is a product of that same, rich tradition. (2/4) — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves

The US House passed our bill which aims to strengthen the FAA's certification process & improve the regulatory process. The trust Americans have in air travel doesn’t happen by itself: It has to be earned, confirmed & reinforced ongoingly. (1/4) https://t.co/E1K55b8qgk https://t.co/9w6LTdOTuu — PolitiTweet.org

Prior to the enactment of this legislation, congressional offices were required to go through a cumbersome paperwork process that required constituents to physically sign permission forms before a federal agency could even be contacted. (2/3) — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves

Signed by POTUS, the CASES Act allows constituents to give their permission online for a member of Congress to work with a federal agency on their behalf. I introduced the bill with @RepJoeKennedy & the US House has now launched the digital consent form. https://t.co/YwyoAmDIKM — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves

We are also leading the national effort to modernize permitting. Louisiana's coastal restoration projects, transportation projects & energy infrastructure priorities would stand to benefit if fast tracked – stimulating economic development & jobs. (3/3) https://t.co/1SPCDi456d — PolitiTweet.org

The bill, conveniently introduced two weeks before Election Day, builds on top of attempts this year to eradicate offshore energy production while the same folks have simultaneously passed legislation to steer offshore revenues to the same states that oppose production. (2/3) — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves

The Blue New Deal disguises knee-capping offshore energy production in the name of reforming federal ocean management. The bill would improve jobs, energy markets, & inject billions of dollars in economic activity in Russia, Saudi Arabia, & China. (1/3) https://t.co/uFwzVJBnKa — PolitiTweet.org

"As a member of both @TransportGOP and @NatResources, Graves is uniquely positioned to lead the charge for this important legislation." I introduced the BUILDER Act & look forward to working alongside colleagues such as @RepNewhouse to cut red tape and rebuild our country. (1/3) — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves

Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves

The more we build upon the successes of the Rigs-to-Reef program, the longer it keeps Louisiana a top competitor in the energy and fishing industries, both of which power our local economies across South Louisiana. More from BSEE here: https://t.co/HaGlNI73zs — PolitiTweet.org

Turning decommissioned offshore platforms, like the Lena platform, into thriving reef environments is a game changer for the preservation of different species — elevating the fishing industry and the important economic activity that comes with it. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves

BSEE has approved the conversion of ExxonMobil’s Lena platform into an artificial reef under the bureau’s Rigs-to-Reefs Program, which creates a solution out of a problem & delivers a sustainable win-win for the Gulf ecosystem & the sportfishing economy. https://t.co/hCsBD2whKl — PolitiTweet.org
