I am hopeful that Ranking member Cantwell and I can broker an agreement on an overdue PHMSA reauthorization that can be implemented by the new PHMS administrator.

In that role, he he cleared backlogs of hundreds of enforcement matters at PHMSA and in various roles in Rhode island state government. (00:09–03:05)
