Here is how the State of Washington handles the Cascades:

There hasn't been any battle about funding the Cascades here in Washington, nor is there likely to be. A vast majority of the state legislature resides along the I-5/Cascades corridor. Not to mention a vast majority of the state's population. To invoke a generality, which I don't usually like to do, the state legislature also happens to be solidly Democratic, so that funding battles are less likely.
I'm taking a trip on the Cascades next month, just to make sure my tax dollars are being managed wisely. :lol:
