Title: NATIONAL LEGISLATIVE PERSPECTIVE
Accession Number: 00745759
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: This conference presentation discusses likely congressional action and inaction on transportation funding. It is argued that, since the aim of the Congress and the President is to reduce the budget deficit to zero, the prospects for increased federal-aid highway funding are poor, even though the balance of the Highway Trust Fund will grow. A decrease in the level of federal funding is likely, and state and local governments will not be able to make up the difference, given the current political climate. A broader array of financing options and more private funding or blends of public and private funding must be found.
