When I took office, years of disinvestment had caused our roads and our bridges to crumble in disrepair. So you're darn right we've been fixing the damn roads. All you gotta do is find those orange barrels. Since 2019, we've improved over 7424 miles of roads and 1780 bridges, including over 900 miles of roads and over 200 bridges last year alone. We've also worked with our Minnesota and federal partners to secure over $1 billion in federal funding to support our effort to replace the Blantic Bridge in Superior. (18:48–19:03)
