Rep. Rafael Anchia (D-Dallas) filed two bills today. One would disallow TxDOT from funding projects like the Trinity Toll Toad. The other would require the toll road to undergo an environmental analysis by the state.
“I’ve told everyone that you should be able to act in the best interest of your district,” Anchia said. “My district hates the toll road.”
