    Texas is spending about $7.5 billion a year to build roads like this. We have allocated about $75 billion over next 10 years to expand roads and reduce congestion. Expect improvements in your area. #txlege #roadshttps://twitter.com/NBCDFW/status/1029062423142166529 …

        Property taxes continue to skyrocket, private pay-to-drive toll roads taking over free highways everywhere, Lottery money promised to help schools is going who-knows-where, so tell me how you want to pay yourself on the back again?

        Crashes are a much bigger problem in Texas than congestion. With 10s of billions poured into “congestion relief” in recent decades, avg cost of congestion hasn’t changed, while we have known, meaningful ways to reduce deaths & crashes. Please reconsider https://www.houstonchronicle.com/opinion/outlook/amp/Texas-has-a-traffic-problem-but-congestion-13158684.php …

        Talk to me about unfunded mandates and our ridiculous property taxes. You are running out of time getting this fixed and if you spend/endorse one more minute on stupid shit, like bathroom bills, you will be tossed out of office!

        Can't wait to have a state that is really just one giant road! Also-- reducing congestion increases traffic speeds which will only increase crashes as long as roads keep expanding where they shouldn't.

        Man, just admit the truth. Tolls are the taxes Texans are paying to build the roads so that you and your cronies can make millions from foreign contractors..
