Below is an op-ed from state Sen. Ray Scott (âWe donât need a gas fee to fix our roadsâ) that attempts to rebut Sundayâs editorial calling for bipartisan cooperation on a transportation funding solution, but instead perfectly illustrates why the Legislature canât get anything done.

Scottâs refusal to budge off his own position.
