Congressional Budget Office Finds House Highway Bill Would Exacerbate Trust Fund Shortfalls A new report from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has cast a shadow over the House's proposed highway bill, revealing that it would significantly widen the trust fund deficit. The CBO analysis suggests that the legislation would exacerbate the existing shortfall in the Highway Trust Fund, which is responsible for financing the nation's infrastructure projects. Despite efforts to address the issue, the report's findings are likely to raise concerns among lawmakers and raise questions about the long-term sustainability of the nation's transportation infrastructure. As lawmakers continue to debate the future of the Highway Trust Fund, the CBO's report highlights the need for a more comprehensive solution to address the nation's infrastructure challenges.
