The state of Missouri only gives St. Louis $1 million/yr for a nearly 50 mile light rail system that has been in place for 20 years. People had been pushing for rail in St. Louis since the streetcars were ripped up in the 60s! We didn't get light rail until the 1990s. Good luck Cincy and keep up the good fight!
I read that Ohio ranks near the bottom when it comes to state funding for transit.
