Fixing Virginia's roads

Virgina Gov.-elect Tim Kaine recently held his first "town hall" meeting on transportation, which he called "the most urgent issue" facing the state. "Urgency requires that Virginia's transportation problems be addressed in 2006," Kaine said, laying down an agenda for the General Assembly session that starts in January. Some House of Delegates members already have supported a no-new-tax path for next year that may collide with a comprehensive state senate transportation package that could require billions in new funds. At least the new governor's thinking is on the right path. Your comment?
