After rancor in the state House yesterday, the chamber undid much of the changes to the budget and passed a newly amended version of the proposed budget, the Tennessean reports. The latest version included an amendment of $55 million for road projects, which was originally set to go to the state Department of Transportation but will now be distributed among the 95 counties. The House voted 83-2, with only Rep. G.A. Hardaway (D-Memphis) and Rep. Andy Holt (R-Dresden) dissenting.
