Mayor Reed, Sen. Fort debate T-SPLOST

Posted: Updated:
ATLANTA -

Metro Atlanta voters go the polls in 12 days to decide on a 1-cent sales tax for transportation.

The money  -- $7 billion over 10 years -- would pay for 157 road and transit projects across a 10-county area.
          
Business leaders and Governor Nathan Deal say the investment is vital to the region's economic future, but there's opposition on both sides of the political spectrum.

FOX 5's Russ Spencer sat down with Mayor Kasim Reed, who supports the measure, and Senator Vincent Fort, who is fighting it.
