Today’s actions in the General Assembly have clearly defined the differences between the Parties in funding transportation. With Del. Glenn Oder’s substitute of HB 6055 (I told y’all not to worry), the Republicans have sided with reprioritizing existing and future revenues to address the crisis in transportation.
Democrats demand tax increases, arguing that every existing tax dollar is spent on things more important that transportation and taxpayers need to pay more.
I’ll take that debate into 2009 any day of the week!
