Critical Highway Trust Fund meeting

According to NSSGA, the Transportation Construction Coalition (TCC) held a meeting Feb. 13 to discuss priorities for the year. It was agreed that the top priority must be to achieve passage of a fix to the projected shortfall in the Highway Trust Fund, which varies from between just over $1 billion to as much as $4 billion. The TCC will meet with congressional leaders and finance committee leaders to determine the course ahead. Also, the coalition will meet shortly to develop principles for reauthorization of the nation's surface transportation reauthorization. NSSGA will actively participate in the TCC meetings to ensure that aggregate-industry interests are included. Your comment?
