  1  1                HOUSE RESOLUTION NO. ___
  1  2                       BY  WEIDMAN
  1  3 A House Resolution encouraging the United States
  1  4    Congress to oppose President Clinton's budget
  1  5    proposal to shift funds from the Highway Trust
  1  6    Fund for purposes other than for federal highway
  1  7    funding to be provided to the states.
  1  8    WHEREAS, President Clinton's federal fiscal year
  1  9 2000-2001 budget proposal to shift approximately $1.3
  1 10 billion from a projected surplus of approximately $3
  1 11 billion in the Highway Trust Fund would result in a
  1 12 loss of approximately $15.9 million in federal highway
  1 13 funding for Iowa; and
  1 14    WHEREAS, a decrease in federal highway funding
  1 15 would hinder Iowa's efforts to maintain and improve
  1 16 interstate highways in this state, which highways are
  1 17 primary routes for motor carriers engaged in
  1 18 interstate commerce; and
  1 19    WHEREAS, a constant and continued investment in
  1 20 Iowa's interstate highways is necessary to maintain a
  1 21 safe and efficient interstate highway system and to
  1 22 prepare for future transportation needs; NOW
  1 23 THEREFORE,
  1 24    BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,
  1 25 That the Congress of the United States is urged to
  1 26 oppose President Clinton's federal fiscal year 2000-
  1 27 2001 budget proposal to shift funds from a projected
  1 28 surplus in the Highway Trust Fund for purposes other
  1 29 than for federal highway funding to be provided to the
  1 30 states; and
  2  1    BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That copies of this
  2  2 Resolution be sent to the President of the United
  2  3 States, to the President and Majority and Minority
  2  4 Leaders of the United States Senate, to the Speaker,
  2  5 Majority Leader, and Minority Leader of the United
  2  6 States House of Representatives, and to members of the
  2  7 Iowa congressional delegation.
