2005 Senate Bill 281 ↩
House Roll Call 441:
Passed
The House-Senate conference report for the Fiscal Year 2005-2006 Department of Transportation budget. This appropriates $3.411 billion in gross spending, compared to $3.283 billion, which was the FY 2004-2005 amount enrolled in 2004. Of this, $1.207 billion is federal money (mostly from gas taxes). The bill cuts $1 million from the previous year’s $7.1 million state Amtrak subsidy, but restores this if Amtrak locates a maintenance facility employing 660 workers in Battle Creek.
