‘Heartbreaking’ #transportation cuts hit home in #GOP districts
Across the U.S., communities are grappling with the fallout of the GOP’s sprawling domestic policy law — including in Republican districts.
By Chris Marquette and Sam Ogozalek, 08/20/2025
"A city in southwestern Utah was poised to benefit from an $87.6 million federal grant to help reconnect neighborhoods split by an increasingly congested Interstate 15.
"But the money intended for the project in St. George vanished after President Donald Trump signed the GOP’s massive tax and spending package last month.
"The solidly Republican community isn’t alone. Across the country, the new law rescinded more than $2.2 billion in unobligated dollars from a $3.2 billion Biden-era program aimed at helping reconnect disadvantaged neighborhoods divided by roadways, according to records reviewed by POLITICO. Areas hit by the cuts include some represented by GOP lawmakers who voted for the law — in the latest example of Trump’s most significant legislative triumph complicating life back home for his allies in Congress.
"In Bowling Green, Kentucky, the law canceled 93 percent of an $11 million grant meant to boost pedestrian safety on a roadway. In western Montana, it wiped out money aimed at improving a highway on the Flathead Indian Reservation and better connecting Missoula-area communities. And on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, the law ended more than $4 million in funding that would have gone toward addressing similar concerns in two municipalities.
"It 'felt like the carpet was pulled out from underneath of us,' said Zack Tyndall, the mayor of Berlin, Maryland. Mayoral elections there are non-partisan. 'We’re still trying to figure out how we can move forward.'
"In St. George, a short drive from Zion National Park’s stunning views and sandstone cliffs, the $87.6 million would have helped address the increasingly busy interstate highway that bifurcates the rapidly growing city. Residents in the area voted overwhelmingly for Trump in 2020 and 2024. But now they’re feeling the impacts of Republicans’ quest to scrub the government of Biden-era programs that conflict with Trump’s priorities."
