Transportation Secretary Pessimistic on Multi-Year Highway Funding Bill

A 90-day bill that will continue surface transportation funding through September was passed by the House last week, but Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said that Congress would not pass a multi-year highway bill before the election in November. Speaking at a transportation event in Washington, LaHood said there will instead likely be more temporary extensions of current road and transit funding, like the 90-day continuing resolution that was approved by lawmakers last month.
