Neal McCaleb, the president of Transportation Revenues Used Strictly for Transportation (TRUST), issued the following statement following the passing of former U.S. Senator Jim Inhofe:

"The members of TRUST, along with surface transportation advocates and professionals from across Oklahoma, mourn the passing of a true giant in Oklahoma public service, Jim Inhofe.  Senator Inhofe was a decades long advocate for modernizing Oklahoma's surface transportation infrastructure and our citizenry is better off for it.  He was instrumental in focusing crucial federal dollars for a myriad of highway and bridge improvement initiatives, including major interstate projects.  Senator Inhofe always answered the bell  to support Oklahoma's transportation sectors. Several years ago, TRUST was honored to present him with our highest honor, the TRUST Guardian of Transportation Award.  We extend condolences to his wife, Kay, their children, grandchildren and entire family."
