President Barack Obama proposed Tuesday to raise $319 billion over the next decade for transportation and other needs with a $10.25-per-barrel tax on crude -- up from $10 that was announced last week.
The higher amount, along with other details, was released Tuesday as part of the president’s $4.1 trillion budget request to Congress.
319 billion over 10 years.
