If I understand correctly, Texas would need another Constitutional amendment to redirect the 5 cents toward roads.

As for the federal gas tax, I would reduce it to 4 cents/gallon, targeted to new interstate projects (I-73, I-74, I-22, I-69, and so on). Then each state could make up the difference as it sees fit. JMNSHO.
