• Prop. 1 is good.
• Tollroads are bad.
• Long term TXDOT debt is bad. 
• Transportation funding must be “aggressively addressed”
• Must “reprioritize transportation funding”
• End budget diversions.
• Dedicate to transportation funding some existing revenue accounts, like the motor vehicle sales tax & auto parts sales tax.
