Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels is going public about how Congress plans on dealing with private investment in the future.
The Senate’s version of the next federal highway bill, a two-year measure, would remove privatized highways from the formula used to distribute highway funds to states. It would cost Indiana, which leased the Indiana Toll Road back in 2006, $42 million a year in federal funding for road and bridgework.
Daniels was in Washington on May 31 to meet with members of the House of Representatives and dispute the move.
