Keep your hands off that bill!

The new $286.4 billion highway bill has been delayed yet again, this time by a meddling senator from Montana who is trying to use an infrastructure project as leverage to avoid a military base closure issue. This is neither the time, nor the place, to fight that battle. After two years of delays, a war of rhetoric and an ongoing difference of opinion between Congress and the White House on funding levels, isn't it high time we just got this bill finished? I call upon the House and Senate to pass this bill -- even at the low funding level they have arrived at -- and do it today. Your comment?
