Amendment Voted Down That Would Have Given 'Enhancements' Money to Bridge Repair

Republican senators yesterday failed in their third recent effort to eliminate federal money for bike paths, walking trails and other transportation enhancement projects.

An amendment by Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., was defeated that would have forbidden the government from spending any money on enhancement projects and re-directed funds to bridge repairs.

According to this New York Times article though, this issue is expected to come up again soon.
