Dr Paul earmarked 13 million for 1-69 the NAFTA highway.
It’s real.
From what I can see, Paul got a $13 million earmark for the Transportation Enhancement Program in Edna Texas, specifically dealing with “cultural and historic assets” and to rehabilitate a trolley in Galveston. I can’t see anything having to do with massive highway expansion or with NAFTA.
By the way, $13 million won’t buy squat!
And NO, I don’t like earmarks, but that isn’t the subject of this discussion.

Peanuts. Texans will have to pay for that road in Texas, just as others states will have to pay for those sections of the road where it passes thru their state.
BTW, Tom Tancredo earmaked money for I-25, a NAFTA highway and the Ports to Plains Corridor, a NAFTA highway.
