Last night's 14-2 vote in the House Finance Committee to approve the Budget plan, which includes the infrastructure-funding provision that eliminates Sakonnet Bridge tolls, is another positive step on the road to eliminating these destructive tolls.
With both the House and Senate leadership on board, it would seem the last possible obstacle is Governor Chafee. Supporters of eliminating the toll are encouraged to call and email the Governor's office to express support for this provision in the Budget plan.
