Finally, a bill that puts culture and history on the map—literally—while promising not to bulldoze tribal voices under the interstate.

Great, now politicians want to slow down progress with a ‘historic trail’—just don’t use it as a speed bump for pipelines.

Nice nostalgia trip, but don’t let this become another excuse for federal overreach or a green tape nightmare.

Route 66 as a national trail? Love it, as long as energy projects don’t hijack the journey or leave us stranded in pollution-ville.

Route 66’s new gig sounds like a scenic drive with no tolls—preserving heritage but keeping the energy pipeline clear and running.

Designating Route 66 is a trip down memory lane—but let's not forget the communities it runs through deserve respect and real consultation.

Making Route 66 official? Cool nod to history, but I hope they don't turn it into just another bureaucratic speed bump.

A historic trail with lots of footnotes—nice balance between preservation and property rights, though I’m watching how tribal talks go down.

Route 66 named a historic trail? Fine by me, as long as they don’t start seizing land or blocking energy development.
