Obama Names Transpo Transition Team

The Obama-Biden transition team today unveiled its “Agency Review Teams” — the people charged with “a thorough review of key departments, agencies and commissions of the
United States government, as well as the White House, to provide the
President-elect, Vice President-elect, and key advisors with
information needed to make strategic policy, budgetary, and personnel
decisions prior to the inauguration.”

We skipped right to the transportation team, of course, and here are the names we found, with biographical info pulled directly from the change.gov website. We’d love to get your intel in the comments.
