"For decades, the Highway Trust Fund has provided a predictable and stable funding source for the construction and maintenance of roads, bridges, transit, and bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure."

"The discussion about the financial challenges faced by the Highway Trust Fund is of critical importance."

"Addressing the solvency of the Highway Trust Fund is not an easy task, but it is an essential one."

"An increase in the Federal Fuel Tax would not only bridge the funding gap but also provide a reliable source of revenue."
