Establishing this transportation fund is incredibly important for providing access to not only Atlasians in rural communities, but everyone. This bill does just that. Providing equal opportunity for our citizens to get to work is essetial and necessary for our economy to thrive.

There are a number of cities that wish to have the interstate system withdrawn from the core of their cities. There are many good arguments in terms of minimizing congestion and such for bypassing the city centers, as well as restoring old communities and removing artificial barriers of division that the highway system created by virtue of the way in which it was built.

At the very least, would the wishes of the cities and communities be respected as part of this process?

This is a noble question. Rerouting the interstate away from major cities could come at a steep cost and would arguably cause less access to these major commercial areas.

I object. This bill needs an appropriations piece. I also do not favor tolls.

So where are the appropriations? This has been on the floor since July and we still don't have that in place.

The House needs to handle appropriations for this.

...We don't have a House.

I suppose we can work this out.

Respectfully, I believe the appropriations section should provide for $20,000,000 in grants to modernize and update our transportation system.  I will officially add the appropriations piece as an amendment  later today.

Offering an added amendment:

Section 2. Appropriations

1. The grant amount to be provided shall be no less than $20,000,000 in aid to update, upgrade, and modernize our transportation grid such as rail-lines, airports, metro stations, and ports.

I object to this motion to table. This is a bill that Atlasia needs.
