States push to shift road funds to transit and bike projects as Trump threatens cuts

As President Donald Trump's administration seeks to roll back funding for transit, walking and biking projects, some states are trying to advance them on their own. A seven-state group known as the Clean Rides Network gained momentum this year in its advocacy for environmentally friendly transportation projects that it says the federal government has abandoned. Lawmakers in Maryland, Illinois and Massachusetts have introduced proposals this session that would require major highway construction to be offset by other projects that reduce greenhouse emissions. Colorado and Minnesota enacted similar policies in past sessions.
