[Bikeboard] House Transportation Bill summary

All - if you have been tracking these types of things, this should come as no surprise to you. The House released their version of a bill to reauthorize transportation funding and it is not kind at all to bike/ped funding, transit, safe routes to school, or Amtrak.

Plus the Speaker has pledged to tie in approval for the Keystone XL pipeline to this bill. If you want to see a quick summary with links to the more detailed text, see below. We could possibly get into this tonight since it may impact future grant opportunities (or lack thereof)
