House Unit Votes Not To Reimburse States for Roads
The House roads subcommittee reversed itself and voted against reimbursing states for interstate designated highways. It approved Rep. Tom Steed's plan for the Bureau of Public Roads to study the issue and report to Congress by January 2, 1958. The move delays action on a $50 billion highway bill and follows a prior Buckley proposal to reimburse 90 percent of construction costs over ten years starting in 1960.
