Title
Federal Legislative Status Report
Overview
The Orange County Transportation Authority regularly updates the Legislative and Communications Committee on policy issues directly impacting the agency’s programs, projects, and operations. An overview on the federal transportation funding picture is provided, specifically the short-term funding extensions necessitated by the protracted negotiations on the Senate-passed infrastructure legislation that also reauthorizes federal surface transportation programs for the next five years. The staff report outlines the next steps in the development of a long-term transportation bill and the impact of the statutory debt limit on the increasingly complicated federal transportation funding landscape.
