In its latest Highway Trust Fund (HTF) projections,
the CBO reports, "the highway and transit accounts of
the Highway Trust Fund will have insufficient
revenues to meet obligations starting in fiscal year
2015." However, the CBO has also said that it is
possible that the HTF will run out of funding before
the expiration of current surface transportation bill,
MAP-21, on Sept. 30. This is consistent with U.S. DOT
Secretary Anthony Foxx's announcement in January
that the Highway Account of the HTF is likely to run
out of money in August of this year.

Long-Term Transportation Bill Will
Require $100 Billion in New Revenue or
Fund Transfers
According to new numbers released this week by
the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office, a
six-year surface transportation bill would require
$100 billion in additional revenue—such as new
taxes or transfers from the Treasury's General
Fund—just to maintain current spending levels.
Foxx Touts President's Transportation Proposal,
Acknowledges State DOT Needs at AASHTO
Washington Briefing
Obama, speaking at Union Depot in St. Paul, Minn., called for
a $302 billion, four-year surface transportation bill to follow
up MAP-21 and allow for greater certainty with funding at the
state and local level. Of that $302 billion, preliminary
indications are that $206 billion would go toward investing in
highways and road safety, $72 billion for transit, $19 billion for
rail programs, and $9 billion for competitive funding for
programs like the Transportation Investment Generating
Economic Recovery (TIGER) grants. The administration says
the bill would also stress coordination and local decision
making so that "communities can better realize their vision for
improved mobility."

House Ways and Means Chair
Camp's measure is a full tax reform document that
touches on transportation as a small piece of that
reform. In his bill, the HTF would receive $126.5
billion through the repatriation of corporate tax
income, enough to keep the HTF solvent for
approximately eight years at current funding
levels. Camp's proposal would also generate about
$200 million between 2014-2023 through a 6cent-per-gallon fee for ships traveling the inland
waterways.
