Money for scenic byways steered to powerful senators
Federal money for National Scenic Byways could be redirected to a few states under a Senate highway spending bill. West Virginia would receive the largest share, with other gains for Washington, Alaska, Alabama, New Jersey, and Idaho. Critics warn the move abandons merit-based distribution, while supporters cite bicentennial relevance and regional benefits.
