February 23, 2018 – It has long been understood that there are three main factors that lead to most traffic deaths: alcohol, speeding, and not wearing a seatbelt. But as more states begin to allow medical and recreational marijuana use, and the opioid epidemic continues to devastate many American communities, a fourth category has emerged: driving under the influence of drugs (DUID).
February 23, 2018 – The second-largest program proposed by the Trump Administration’s long-awaited infrastructure initiative is $40 billion in block grants for infrastructure improvements in rural areas, with almost no federal strings attached, to be spent in rural areas at the discretion of the state governor.
