Leaders press for enactment of road bill

Leaders urge early passage of a highway bill worth 1,800,000 dollars with a billboard provision. Senate support came by a 47-41 vote after a House conference action, as lawmakers push to finish before the Easter recess. The measure would guide states on billboard regulation by raising fed share slightly in regulated states, amid opposition from advertisers and some highway users. Agreement in conference is needed from both chambers before approval.
