Headlines are quick hits from media outlets from Missouri and around the world. Follow the headline link for the full story. The source of this headline says:

On the afternoon of Dec. 1, Congress released the text of what is expected to be the final version of a five-year transportation bill, the FAST (Fixing America’s Surface Transportation) Act. Both chambers of Congress—the House and Senate—are likely to vote on final passage this week, and President Obama is expected to sign the bill into law next week. The verdict is in: Trails, walking and biking are here to stay as part of America’s transportation system.
