Michigan legislative leaders report having a productive meeting with Gov. Rick Snyder on road funding but no deal.
Lawmakers are working on a $1.2 billion plan that could include a boost in fuel taxes and vehicles fees along with shifting money from other spending priorities.
There's some optimism a plan can be approved this week. But cobbling enough votes for higher gasoline taxes will be difficult.
The House returned Tuesday after a monthlong break and is in session through Thursday.
Legislators are eying a compromise under which $600 million in additional revenue would be collected from increased fuel and registration taxes. Another $600 million would come from redirecting existing general funds. Specifics haven't been worked out.
In May, voters rejected a road-funding plan that included a sales tax increase.
