Congressman secures $110 million for San Antonio's first rapid transit line
U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar, whose 28th district stretches from Laredo to South and East San Antonio, has secured $110 million in federal funding for VIA's first rapid transit route. The money comes from the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure's fiscal 2025 appropriations bill, according to details released by Cuellar, a Democrat indicted in May on federal corruption charges. "Quality transportation infrastructure is key to growth and a high quality of life in our community," Cuellar said in a statement.
