Tara Johnson on Transportation
Expressed frustration with state government's inability to get its budget in order. Believes legislators use "low-hanging fruit" such as the transportation fund or the tobacco settlement money to plug holes in the budget, which she called "wrong."
Believes the state needs to look at transportation in a comprehensive way, and that having fewer vehicles on the road makes sense.
Believes Wisconsin has to maintain and expand its highway system if it is to grow.
Believes in development of high speed rail to move lots of people efficiently. Will be happy when a high speed rail line comes through La Crosse area.
