Title

Federal Legislative Status Report

 

Overview

A support position is recommended on legislation regarding sales tax revenues from aviation fuel. Summaries of a pending rulemaking on vehicle emissions and a statutory rescission are provided. Updates on the appropriations process, potential infrastructure legislation, and a hearing on state-owned transportation assets are also provided.

 

Recommendation(s)

Adopt a SUPPORT position on H.R. 2939 (Napolitano, D-El Monte), which would protect local sales tax dollars from being directed to airports.
