Unfortunately that's not how it works.

Interstate highways, i.e. the ones with the blue, red, white shield-shaped markers, are federally funded, and what they can be used for is defined at the federal legislation level.

Violate those rules, funding gets withdrawn for noncompliance, etc.

Where does most of that that finding come from?

Excuse my typo -- I meant to write "funding." My point is that Democrats and neolibs always bring a toy knife to the Republican's gunfight. Progressives need to own their power and stop funding a federal government (and welfare red states) that is sacrificing everything we value to make billionaires richer.
