After months of negotiation, lawmakers from both parties announced a deal to fund a new round of infrastructure repairs across roads, bridges and public transit systems.
The agreement earmarks funding for projects that had stalled amid disagreements over financing mechanisms and project prioritization.
Supporters say the deal reflects rare common ground in an otherwise divided legislative session, while critics argue the funding still falls short of long-term needs.
The bill now heads to committee review before a expected floor vote in the coming weeks.
