President Trump said in a speech before Congress that he wants $1 trillion for infrastructure projects.

Oregon lawmakers would love to get a cut of that. A transportation package is one of their top priorities this session.

Host Geoff Norcross talks with OPB senior political reporter Jeff Mapes and Salem reporter Chris Lehman about which roads and bridges are likely to be prioritized, and how a transportation package could be funded.
