Disabled Veterans in TX to Get Reduced/Waived Toll Fees?

I switched on the idiot box, and the county commissioner's court was having a hearing. Apparently there is an effort well underway to get free or reduced toll fees automatically applied to cars with Disabled Veterans', Purple Heart, and Medal of Honor license plates.

I say go for it. If the CTRMA board approves, it could happen as soon as September. If somebody is gimpy or a certified hero from their time in the military service of our country, they deserve a few bennies. Let's have a waiver of toll road fees be one of them.

Now if we could get property and sales tax waivers also that would be really something!

ETA: If I were on some low or mid-level political functionary body, I would go insane. Blah blah blah blah blah blah all day long? No thanks. Everyone is on board with this idea and still it's blah blah blah blah blah. Ugh.
