Texans specifically lose out in this bill. It provides almost as much new money for transit and rail as roads and bridges. 92% of Texas commuters rely on roads to get to work FYI — Amtrak from San Antonio to Austin takes nearly 2.5 hrs (~2x the time it takes to drive) (12/14) https://t.co/xblAftvW1n — PolitiTweet.org
