    Even though @GovJayNixon is against transportation tax proposal, his @MODOT is participating in edu effort: http://bit.ly/1l2HeD7  #MOLEg

        @eyokley @GovJayNixon @MoDOT Not his. He appoints members of commission, who can go off script and do. Other Govs have had tighter reins.

        @QuincyBob @eyokley @GovJayNixon @MoDOT Those two support pouring concrete to cover the entire Mississippi River with 14 traffic lanes.

        @ScottCharton @eyokley @GovJayNixon @MoDOT I always say they want 8 lanes going 8 different directions from the Hannibal/Quincy Metroplex.

        @eyokley @GovJayNixon @MoDOT The governor doesn't run his admin. departments. He has said so clearly in the past (Eco Devo).

        @eyokley @GovJayNixon much like DESE, MoDOT is run by an appointed board. Governor really doesn't direct control over it.

        @jrosenbaum @eyokley @GovJayNixon Not always; Gov Mel Carnahan and his MHC Chair Lee Kling dumped Ashcroft's 15-yr road plan. Sheer power.

        @ScottCharton @eyokley @GovJayNixon right. I was trying to differentiate between "direct" control (like Dept. of Revenue) and indirect.

        @ScottCharton @eyokley @GovJayNixon if the governor doesn't try to influence the appointed board to do anything, I would say so.

        @jrosenbaum @ScottCharton @eyokley That raises the question -- will @GovJayNixon try to influence MHTC? They're onboard w/ .75% tax now.

        @MarshallGReport @jrosenbaum @eyokley @GovJayNixon State agencies have caught heat for taking sides on ballot issues. #InformationalPurposes
