I was disappointed to see my amendment on TIGER grant funding fail in committee markup today. Republicans want to make transit projects ineligible to receive TIGER grant funding. The Union Depot project was a huge beneficiary of TIGER funds in the past, and the people of St. Paul know firsthand what a positive economic impact that transit project has had on our community. It is disheartening to see a successful government program that valued flexibility and local control weakened by Republicans.
