State Senator John Proos is pleased that Governor Rick Snyder has signed some road funding legislation that he sponsored. Proos says that his plan would require that all money collected by Michigan's gasoline tax be put into the state's road fund. That, he says, will ensure that the state gets all of the federal matching funds it needs for road projects:
Proos says that the law will ensure that about 100 million dollars collected in gas taxes goes specifically to road projects, rather than the state's general fund. With the federal match, it would mean about 400 million dollars for transportation in Michigan.
