    Meanwhile: Some Real News;Congress reaches deal on transportation bill

    Congress has reached an agreement on a transportation bill for the first time since 2005, averting a crisis that could have disrupted the nation’s highway projects at the height of the construction season.

    In the final days before a deadline, Republicans dropped their demands to piggyback onto the bill approval for the Keystone oil pipeline, as well as relaxation of proposed restrictions on coal ash produced by power plants.

    In return, Democrats gave up on $1.4 billion for conservation and agreed to allow states more leeway in how they use money that was once mandated for landscaping, bike improvements and pedestrian walkways.
