February 17: Highways fund could be broke by June: senator from Reuters
- The fund backing U.S. highway and transit programs will be broke by August if Congress does not pass a bill that would extend those programs and transfer $20 billion into the fund, the chair of the Senate's public works committee told reporters on Wednesday. "It is very critical," said California Democrat Barbara Boxer. "If we don't have that transfer ... then starting in June and certainly by August, the Highway Trust Fund will be out of funds."
