Utne News from past post, presented today this article found on a news link from a website from a resource for listeners to contribute by the the Laura Lee Show, Conversation for Exploration, web site ; the news from Utne, the disclaimer from Laura Lee Show; "bicyclists", added in post title as subjected to Congressional of funding void, the word void in post title link,
Last month, the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee voted to eliminate federal funding for bicycling projects and infrastructure. As PRI reports, last year, federal support amounted to $1.2 billion—less than 2 percent of all transportation spending—that went toward projects like the Safe Routes to School program as well as Complete Streets initiatives aimed at maintaining safe spaces for bikes and pedestrians on roadways. In the House Committee version, all of this would have been taken out. To the relief of many, a Senate version introduced early in March restored this funding, and it is likely to pass this week. The close call served as a reminder of how important federal dollars are in maintaining and expanding cycling options for city dwellers—and how much Washington’s spending priorities have recently shifted.
