Sen. John Braun and Sen. Jeff Wilson challenge the $14.4 billion Interstate Bridge Replacement project, arguing light rail should be postponed until Clark County voters approve operational funding. The Republican senators criticize decision-makers for prioritizing light rail over bridge construction, noting costs have doubled since 2022 and questioning federal transit grants, voter approval, and financial liabilities. They propose building a "light rail ready" bridge first, adding vehicle capacity, and respecting Clark County's three previous votes against light rail taxation. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/opinion/opinion-delaying-light-rail-offers-best-hope-for-new-bridge/ #Interstatebridge #LightRail #ClarkCounty #Transportation #IBR #WashingtonPolitics #BridgeReplacement #PublicTransit #TaxpayerRights #Opinion
