I found out about it today when I went to the tobacco shop to buy The Lovely Harvey's cigarettes.
Seems that making sure roll-your-own tobacco shops pay the $1.01 per pack tax is transportation now. It's creating jobs too! The five people who run the place are gone and the owner is ruined.
Transportation also includes a one year extension on Stafford Student Loans at 3.4% instead of letting them increase to 6.8%.
Transportation also includes relief to pension plans who invested poorly in low interest vehicles.
Transportation includes national flood insurance.
But most of all, transportation includes taking the 15.44 cents per gallon you're paying at the pump and spending it on anything but the highways that it supposedly is collected to maintain.
Every single Democrat in congress save Daniel Inouye (who appears to be home sick) voted for this. More than a couple Republicans voted for it as well, but it's always telling when there's nobody from one party voting differently.
