Deadlock in Boston over turnpike and transit $s


.Legislators and the Patrick administration are trying to find new sources of revenue as an alternative to sharp increases in toll rates on the Massachusetts Turnpike, but they can't agree on how.

The state house majority led by Democrat speaker Robert DeLeo prefer an increase in the state sales tax from 5.0% to 6.25%, but Governor Patrick, also a Democrat says he'll veto any sales tax increase. Patrick wants a gas tax increase of 19c/gallon.
