U.S. Reps. Conor Lamb (D-PA), Bob Gibbs (R-OH) and Salud Carbajal (D-CA) introduced bipartisan legislation to authorize an additional $18 billion in emergency funding for state Departments of Transportation (DOTs).
The legislation, the “Providing Assistance for Vital Enhancements (PAVE) Act,” H.R. 3201, would make up the estimated $28 billion budgetary shortfall the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) said state DOTs will face between FY 2020 and 2024.
