Texas is taking federal money to build highways? I thought they were leaving.

Get lost Texicans. Electric cars are going to replace the only thing you're contributing...oil. Take your hate and hit the road you worthless fucks.

Fine. Just give us back all the fucking money we paid in taxes and we will be gone. Otherwise, shut the fuck up and let us build our highways the way we want to with our own fucking money that you stole.
 
It's getting pretty bad when you have to listen to a twerp tell you how to build a road. I doubt if Pygmy Pete could even change a flat. What makes anyone think this dude is qualified to do this job in the first place? Oh yeah, this was another one of Biden's brainy idea.

President Joe Biden’s Department of Transportation (DOT) has paused a highway widening project in Houston, Texas, citing Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as legal justification.

In what could be a first for any administration in this context, the Biden administration is using its federal powers to pause the Texas DOT plan to widen Interstate 45. The administration is doing this as a test to address what it calls a history of “government-driven racial inequalities.”

This comes after complaints from local activities during the federal DOT’s intervention period. The proposed plan, known as the North Houston Highway Improvement Project, is proposed to widen I-45 at three different sections.

The Texas DOT’s completed environmental review of the project in February found it would have a significant impact on the surrounding communities the highway currently runs through. It would reportedly displace a substantial number of black and Hispanic communities, including schools, places of worship, and more than 1,000 homes and businesses.

Biden’s transportation secretary, Pete Buttigieg, claims he will make what he calls “systemic racism” the centerpiece of his time at the department, consistent with Biden’s Executive Order 13985.

Title VI is part of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 that prohibits discrimination based on race, color, or national origin in programs that are receiving federal financial assistance.

Federal officials involved in this could eventually allow the project to take place. Politico reported, “the action to freeze it at all, and in particular DOT’s use of civil rights laws to underpin that decision, has buoyed activists on the ground and surprised even seasoned regulators in Washington.”

Permanently blocking this project could pose an uphill battle for the administration. Many lawyers say the administration will have to prove that widening the highway route in specific areas is intentionally discriminating against minority groups. Others note the Biden administration could try to persuade courts to agree that because the highway’s widening affects more minorities than whites, it should be considered a Title VI violation even with no evidence of discriminatory intent.

Texas is leaving the union....no need to keep funding the shit hole.
 
This part can't be overlooked, that is a significant effect on the lives of these people, homes, schools and so on, there must be a better way to have this done?

"The Texas DOT’s completed environmental review of the project in February found it would have a significant impact on the surrounding communities the highway currently runs through.

I can understand the resistance to the dislocation of so many people.

Nothing could be further from the truth, Texas is discriminating many the minorities in the city.

FHWA’s intervention is a major win for critics of the project, who have said it failed to consider local community input and negatively impacted the environment and quality of life in nearby neighborhoods.

On the heels of the letter, Harris County sued TxDOT under the National Environmental Policy Act, a federal law enacted in 1969 that mandates proper environmental consideration for all projects requiring federal action.

In filing the suit, Harris County Attorney Christian Menefee also said the NHHIP would displace families in more than 1,000 homes, displace businesses and reduce parkland.

“We cant allow TxDOT to cut corners and fail to live up to their duty to consider environmental impact on this project,” Menefee said.

In a statement, TxDOT Executive Director James Bass said the agency had not yet seen the Harris County lawsuit.

"We were looking forward to continuing our work with stakeholders on refining the plans for the project, but these plans may now be in jeopardy due to the lawsuit,” Bass said. “We look forward to discussing our efforts to mitigate concerns about implementing the HGAC's vision for I-45.”

That's the DemoKKKrat way; decreasing traffic congestion = "destroying the neighborhood". DemoKKKrats wouldn't want those minorities having any chance to get ahead, would they?
 
I thought you people believed in "Majority Rules".

The majority of the residents in this area want an improvement to the infrastructure. Those neighborhoods will just have to acquiesce to the majority.
