President-elect Joe Biden introduces Pete Buttigieg as incoming Transportation secretary in Wilmington, Delaware.

Biden said in a statement Tuesday that the Transportation Department is at the nexus of the interlocking challenges of jobs, infrastructure, equity and climate change that he has promised to address.

"I trust Mayor Pete to lead this work with focus, decency, and a bold vision," Biden said. "He will bring people together to get big things done.”

Buttigieg is scheduled to appear with Biden Wednesday for a formal announcement. On Twitter, he called the nomination a "tremendous opportunity – to create jobs, meet the climate challenge, and enhance equity for all."
