Hey everyone, have you heard about this new bill in Congress called the MORE DOT Grants Act? I think it's really cool because it could bring more funding for transportation projects in our state. I'm not exactly sure about all the details, but I know it could help improve our roads and public transportation systems. I'm excited to see how this bill could benefit our community and make it easier for people to get around. It's important to invest in infrastructure, and this bill seems like a step in the right direction. Did you know that this bill also includes provisions for improving bike lanes and pedestrian walkways? I think that's a great addition to help promote alternative forms of transportation. Let's hope it gets passed soon!
