Washington, DC – The Institute of Makers of Explosives (IME) President Clark Mica today released the following statement in support of former U.S. Representative Sean Duffy to be the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Transportation:

“Mr. Duffy’s extensive background in government, serving as both a district attorney and a member of Congress, along with his bipartisan approach to solving key policy issues, makes him well positioned to lead the DOT.
