TxDOT Showers Employees With Cash Bonuses!

“Cash poor” TxDOT gave away
over $1,000,000 in bonuses!

Gov. Perry's TxDOT, has been crying wolf for years, claiming it’s run out of money in an effort to scare Texans into using our tax dollars to toll our public highways. Just days ago we learned TxDOT made a $1 Billion dollar error (counted it twice) and exaggerated it's financial crisis.

It’s now revealed that TxDOT has been giving away cash bonuses. Over $1,000,000 has been handed out to TxDOT managers and other employees according to WOAI’s report:
We've uncovered that TXDOT has enough money to give more than $1 million in bonuses to employees in the past three years. That includes top management. We got our hands on these state documents, that show before he retired last August, TXDOT Director Michael Behrens gave several of his top managers cash bonuses ranging from $2,000 to $3,000 each.
