Reply to comment by [deleted] in Healey should give rural Massachusetts a seat at the table - The Boston Globe by GlobeOpinion
right, we had to wait like six extra years for new red line and orange line cars because we had to build a factory in western MA to build them in order to get support from the rural electeds. and Baker vetoed indexing the gas tax because it wasn’t popular amongst rural voters

The gas tax indexing was before Baker. Gov. Patrick is the one that vetoed the original bill, and it was subsequently over-ridden by the legislature and passed into law, then was repealed by ballot measure.
