What’s Happening With Infrastructure and the Highway Bill?

March 5, 2020 | 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM

Funding for highways, rail, transit, and other infrastructure expires later this year, and federal lawmakers are far apart on how to renew it. Join BGOV experts for this webinar to discuss how the pending deadline could finally spur action on a major infrastructure package. Our analysts and reporters will review the outlook for the next “highway bill” as well as proposals on water, energy, airports, and more.

We’ll discuss:

  • The surface transportation reauthorization process
  • The Highway Trust Fund’s forthcoming insolvency
  • Pending infrastructure proposals in the House and Senate
  • Trump administration proposals and regulatory actions
