Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and Rep. Nancy Pelosi announced a $400 million federal grant to provide improvements to the Golden Gate Bridge.
"From the very moment that it opened, this bridge has stood as one of the most essential and recognizable in our country," Buttigieg said. Its location, its proportions, its design make it not just the defining emblem of the Bay Area, but one of the great physical emblems of the United States itself."

Buttigieg noted that in addition to its imagery, the bridge is"a working piece of infrastructure" that serves as a"key link for supply chains." He said that without improvements, its structure would become increasingly vulnerable.
