As the old saying goes: “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.”

That applied today as Wayne County Executive Warren Evans went to the Regional Transit Authority board to offer a revised regional transit plan.

Detroit News business columnist Daniel Howes joined Stateside today to discuss that revised plan. He explained how not winning Amazon's second headquarters may impact reception of the plan, and why we’re suddenly seeing actions toward fixing public transit in southeast Michigan.

Listen above, or read Howes' essay on the topic here.
