The next 12-month spending plan for the Iowa D-O-T that cleared the legislature last weekend is roughly identical to the current year.

Vehicle sales dropped 54 percent in April and rebounded, a bit, to be down by a third in May.
That reduced the amount of use taxes the state collects from vehicle sales, but Bossman says car and truck sales are expected to rebound as well.
The next state fiscal year begins July 1st.
