Lansing, MI, VA, USA. Republican governors are trying to make good on their promises to cut corporate taxes, but some are finding a bit more resistance than they may have expected.

Tom Little, who owns the Kalamazoo branch of the ServiceMaster cleaning business, says a sweeping corporate tax cut the state of Michigan just enacted will be a big help for his company.

Chicago, IL, USA. Railroads, shippers and governments disagree all the time about transportation issues. But they are united on one point: Something has to be done about costly delays in getting trains through Chicago.

It is an all-too-common experience. An Amtrak passenger train traveling from Michigan, just eight miles from its final stop at Chicago’s downtown Union Station, has to idle for 15 minutes at a signal tower on the South Side.
