9th Time is the Charm for Temporary Surface Transportation Funding

President Obama signed a 90 day extension for surface transportation funding, representing the 9th temporary extension of such funding since 2009. This latest move preserves on-going projects and continues the government's authority to levy the gasoline tax. Here is media report from the Washington Post.

Needless to say, this latest stop-gap measure pushes the legislative work even furhter into the election year.

See my earlier post about a prior House version of the legislation.
