Issue Position: Roads and Bridges

Over the last two years hundreds of millions of dollars have been dedicated to funding roads and bridges across the state. The result? New funding to make Highway 23 four lanes from Willmar to St. Cloud. Four lanes leads to greater safety and more jobs for our area. Much of that funding came from an initiative I passed to direct existing taxes related to auto parts to roads and bridges. This new funding stream did not raise taxes or tab fees and will fun construction for 8,800 lane miles and 200 bridges.
