MN House Committee OKs Massive Transportation Bill (Copy)
After compromises and emotional discussions, the House Transportation Committee approved an omnibus budget bill, despite some committee members from both political parties expressing dissatisfaction with the contents.
The bill contains nearly $10 billion in spending over the next two fiscal years for roads, bridges, transit and airports. It also contains a host of policy measures, but some of the sharpest debate came over provisions that didn’t make it into the massive bill.
