(Original source Cincinnati.com)
Ray LaHood, U.S. transportation secretary from 2009-2013, is traveling the country pitching his federal highway funding proposal. He is a former Illinois Republican congressman and is currently a co-chair of the non-profit Building America’s Future. He visited The Enquirer’s editorial board on Monday to talk highways, streetcars, bridges and getting things done (or not) in Washington, D.C.
