Do the constituents know Biden had transportation grants? Are the R voters pissed to the point that they will vote their R representatives out of office? We are skeptical.

Here in Pensacola, FL they revoked funding for replanting hurricane-devastated canopy, seemingly because there was language in the grant about equity (because the worst heat islands are in poor communities). Preventing heat stroke is too woke, I guess.
