It's a beautiful thing, when Republicans and Democrats can come together, agree upon something, and then move forward together. It doesn't happen often, but four Senators in Washington state have pulled together toward a common goal: Senate Bill 5090, if passed, would block any expenditure of state funds for a replacement of the existing I-5 bridges across the Columbia River that includes light rail as a component.
Suddenly, the folks in Oregon who've been pushing for the thing while urging a bipartisan approach find bipartisanship somewhat less attractive.
