Transportation (Bridges)

Amends the Motor Fuel Tax Law. Provides that, of the moneys in the Transportation Renewal Fund that are used for highway maintenance, highway construction, bridge repair, congestion relief, and construction of aviation facilities, 40% (instead of 60%) shall be transferred to the State Construction Account Fund and 60% (instead of 40%) shall be distributed by the Department of Transportation to municipalities, counties, and road districts of the State. Effective immediately.

This is a procedural resolution (SJR 15), not a bill with direct policy changes. It urges the U.S. Congress to pass H.R. 4052, which would establish a national infrastructure bank to finance infrastructure projects. The resolution cites Illinois infrastructure challenges (like lead pipes, bridge conditions, and housing needs) and references the proposed bank's model based on historical infrastructure banks. It does not create new federal spending or taxes, as stated in the resolution.
