first is that the administration has nominated a woman named thelma drake, to be the federal transit administrator. the f.t.a. has been without an administrator for a year now. so welcome news to see someone appointed and nominated. she's a former republican member of congress from norfolk, virginia. she was a member of the virginia house of delegates. head of virginia's department of rail and public transit department. and her nomination seems to be so far being well received by the industry, she seems like a professional who has good experiences that will bring much needed leadership. it's been since january 2014 since the fda had a confirmed administrator when the previous administrator left there was an acting administrator towards the end of the obama administration and continuing acting administrators and the last year. so hopefully the f.d.a. will have leadership in place soon. which would be good for us and the rest of the country. also last week, two major pieces of initiative came out of the white house. the infrastructure package and the proposed federal budget. i won't go
