Denying public transit funding is just plain stupid. There are people with disabilities and many others who cant' afford an automobile. With high ridership, it is time to get lots of funding so that the maintenance workers can keep those transportation machines working.

What they don't have is operating dollars. Why not let Transit Operators convert capital funds to operating funds if needed??? It won't cost the Feds any more money and will help pay keep existing and expand bus and train service, not to mention the the possibility of keeping fares reasonable.

Columbia Crossing Bridge proposed between Oregon and Washington at the NW Lucky Lab Brewpub in NW Portland.. The Park Roof will absorb CO2 - 24/7 , and the Park Plantlife will eliminate most rain-driven pollution runoff [saving a fortune in treatment capacity near the depleted salmon migration path]. The arcing Park will connect the 2 states with a World Class Green Gateway to the NW. There is an exhibit of Artworks depicting a Green Park Roof for the $4b.
