stories with me about how the high cost of gas is affecting their

forced many people in our region to start looking at alternative
transportation methods like public transportation. I believe it is
important for state and local governments to be able to determine what
kinds of transportation options meet their individual region's unique
needs. </SPAN></SPAN> </P>

kind of transportation and infrastructure best meets their local
needs. </SPAN></SPAN> </P>
