ciroccojSenate Defies Bush, Approves Highway Bill
Which is interesting to me chiefly because
In addition to granting money to states to repair and build roads and bridges, the bill provides more than $50 billion for public transit, funds recreational road programs and promotes highway safety.
and
Sen. Maria Cantwell (news, bio, voting record), D-Wash., won approval of an amendment that would require the
Environmental Protection Agency to update fuel economy testing to reflect real-life driving conditions. Gas mileage stickers on new cars now inflate true fuel economy performance by 10 percent to 30 percent.
Huh.
