Re:SurfaceTransportationFinanceandtheHighwayTrustFundDearChairmanCampandRankingMemberLevin:Forthepastthirtyyears,Congresshasprovideddedicatedfundingforhighwayandtransitprograms through an excise tax on gasoline dedicated to the Highway Trust Fund. Thisfunding structure has successfully provided highway and transit programs with secure,dedicatedrevenuesandbudgetaryfirewallsdatingbacktotheReaganadministration.Thesuccess of this approach is without question: The Trust Fund has been critical to ournation’s ability to build an efficient andmultimodal transportation system.With recordtransit ridership, now is not the time to eliminate guaranteed funding for our nation’spublic transportation systems,which savedAmericans close to $19 billion in congestioncosts in 2009. For the first time in thirty years, the pending legislation H.R. 3864, theAmerican Energy and Infrastructure Jobs Financing Act, removes the certainty of acontinuedrevenuesourceforourtransitsystemsaswellastheCongestionMitigationandAirQualityProgram.Specifically, we are deeply concerned about the provision in H.R. 3864 that wouldterminate funding from the excise tax on gasoline and replace it with the AlternativeTransportationAccount.Inplaceofgasolinetaxrevenues,thelegislationwouldprovideaone‐time$40billiontransferofGeneralFundrevenues to theAlternativeTransportationAccount.Notonlyisthisleveloffundinginsufficienttofullyfundtheproposedauthorizedlevels for theAlternativeTransportationAccount,but itwouldsubject transitandCMAQfunding to the annual appropriations process. This change will make it impossible forpublic transit systems across the country to plan for the future. It will also make itimpossiblefortheFTAtohonorgrantagreements.In addition, this legislation does not make clear how the $40 billion in General FundrevenueswillbeoffsetintheU.S.budget.Asaresultofthisfundinggap,weareconcernedthatthe$40billiongeneralrevenuetransfermaynotoccurleavingtransitprogramsoutinthecold.We strongly encourage the Committee to rejectH.R. 3864 andwork to continue to fundhighwayandtransitprogramsthroughdedicatedfunding.Sincerely,
