Issue Position: Transportation Infrastructure

Issue Position

Texans are feeling the pressures from an underfunded transportation system. Construction costs are growing and our current infrastructure can't keep up. The costs of repairs and new projects are more than our local county and city governments can afford on their own. We all pay gasoline taxes to the state and the state collects billions in severance taxes from oil and gas production in our region. Both of those revenue sources go toward transportation funding, but our communities have been ignored. Eddie Morales will fight to increase our fair share of state transportation funding.
