Seat backs and tray tables upright
After a really bad flight we are ready for a really bad landing. Both the House and Senate are closing in this week on final votes on their versions of a replacement for SAFETEA-LU, the too-tough-to-die surface transportation bill.

The Association of Equipment Manufacturers is taking what I think will become a pretty popular position on the House’s HR7 reauthorization bill, the American Energy and Infrastructure Jobs Act (AEIJA), just passed by the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee.

Back to where we were?
Have we come as far as we are going to come for a while with reauthorization? Was the recent promise of some sort of bipartisan breakthrough just that? As House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee chairman John Mica prepares to unveil what should be a five-year bill with a $260 billion tag (and the Senate has […]

We get to it when we get to it
I think maybe Congress is using  one of Salvador Dali’s clocks to figure out when we might be a reauthorization bill. Then again, I suppose progress wasn’t supposed to be predictably smooth.

Is this it? Or something like it?
The Senate Environment and Public Works Committee has released the full text of its surface transportation reauthorization bill. It's called MAP-21 (SAFETEA-LU it isn't), and of course, it's an acronym (they have people for this) -- Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act.

Reauthorization — actual progress
The Senate Environment and Public Works Committee has oh so recently announced its two-year surface transportation bill proposal, (see my blog post, "Is this it? Or something like it?" for full proposal details), and now, in a unanimous vote , has approved the proposal. On it moves in the legislative process. How the Senate's two-year bill will find a way to work with the House's push for a six-year bill is to be worked out. And how the Senate hopes to keep spending levels as they are now when the Highway Trust Fund can't do that is also still to be worked out.,The Senate Environment and Public Works Committee has oh so recently announced its two-year surface transportation bill proposal, (see my blog post, "Is this it?
