Washington, D.C. (October 3, 2025) - American Public Transportation Association (APTA) President and CEO Paul P. Skoutelas released the following statement:
"The American Public Transportation Association (APTA) congratulates David Fink on his confirmation as Administrator of the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA). His decades of rail leadership and deep industry expertise will be invaluable as the nation strengthens its passenger rail network.
"Passenger rail is essential to America's mobility future-connecting communities, reducing congestion, and supporting economic growth. Administrator Fink's proven record advancing innovation and operational excellence uniquely positions him to guide the FRA during this transformative era for passenger rail.
"Thanks to historic investments, communities across the country are ready to modernize passenger rail infrastructure, improve safety, and expand service. APTA looks forward to working closely with Administrator Fink and the FRA to advance policies that will grow intercity passenger rail, enhance commuter rail, and integrate them more seamlessly with other modes of transportation.
"As the next Surface Transportation Authorization Act takes shape, APTA and its 1,700 member organizations stand ready to collaborate with Administrator Fink and the FRA to secure the strong federal support needed to expand and modernize passenger rail. Together, we can deliver the safe, efficient, and innovative rail systems that Americans deserve."
