Senate Confirms Maria Cino to be Deputy Secretary of Transportation

On May 11, the Senate confirmed Maria Cino to be Deputy Secretary of Transportation by unanimous consent. Ms. Cino's nomination was reported by the Senate Commerce Committee on April 27, 2005.

"I am pleased the Senate yesterday confirmed Maria Cino to be Deputy Secretary of Transportation," said Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Ted Stevens (R-Alaska). "She will provide a strong right hand for Secretary Mineta on the many issues facing DOT today. Transportation infrastructure investment is the foundation of an efficient, effective economy, and there is much work to do towards modernizing our air traffic control, passenger rail, and other crucial transportation sectors. I look forward to working with her on these goals."
