Cortez Masto Announces Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg as Keynote Speaker for 28th Annual Lake Tahoe Summit

Washington, D.C. - Today, U.S. Senator Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) announced that U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg has been invited as the keynote speaker for the 28th annual Lake Tahoe Summit. The summit will be held on August 14, 2024, and this year’s theme is “Connecting Tahoe: Investing in Transit, Trails, and Technology for the Future”. The summit will focus on efforts by federal, state, and local stakeholders to address Lake Tahoe’s transportation challenges and support innovative solutions to protect the lake for future generations. Senator Cortez Masto has been a champion for Lake Tahoe in the U.S. Senate. In 2020, Cortez Masto hosted the 24th annual Tahoe Summit, and she is leading efforts to extend the Lake Tahoe Restoration Act through 2034. Secretary Buttigieg was a key player in the development, passage, and implementation of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. Since the law’s passage, Secretary Buttigieg has focused on effectively delivering the investments provided by this legislation, enabling the most significant improvements in U.S. transportation infrastructure in over half a century. The Department of Transportation also recently delivered $24 million in funding from their Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) grant program to extend the popular Tahoe East Shore Trail.
