(The Center Square) – The pressure continues to rise in the legislature as House Democrats moved another proposal to increase mass transit funding.

This time, it includes accountability provisions tied to funding levels and bolsters support for road and bridge repair – key provisions of a Senate Republican-authored plan that's not progressed.

Without some agreement, Philadelphia's mass transit agency – SEPTA – will raise fares and cut services, leaving many of its 1 million riders in the lurch.

Still, while critics don't disparage the economic benefits the mass transit agency brings to the state overall, Republican Rep. Kerry Benninghoff, of Bellefonte, says he worries about ever-rising support that goes above and beyond what the state can afford.
