Legislative Study For Illiana This Summer Or Fall?

The Indiana Democrats responded to Gov. Mitch Daniels' announcement that the Illiana Expressway Toll Road wouldn't extend east past I-65.

“You can only push people so far before they begin to see right through you,” (Democratic chairman Dan) Parker said. “Hoosiers have spoken, and Mitch Daniels knew House Democrats would listen to them. He had no choice but to take his unpopular proposals off the table.”
Things could still be on track for a Lake County Illiana Expressway, but it might be pushed back into Indiana House committee hearings.

Indiana House Speaker Pat Bauer promised "legislative study" for "toll road proposals" in the summer or the fall, according to the Democrat's news release.
