7 Legislative Update
8 Legislative and Political Situation Congress out of session until after November elections. Political analysts expect Republicans to maintain majority in House of Representatives Senate control up in the air. 50/50 chance for change in control. Either way, margin for Republicans or Democrats is expected to be very close. Specific results of November election will influence the legislative agenda in November and December. 8
9 Appropriations Federal government operating under a Continuing Resolution. H.J. Res. 124, extends Federal spending until December 11, All public transportation programs are funded at FY2014 levels. Question remains whether Congress will enact a full Omnibus Appropriations bill, or again extend the CR into next year 2015 or through all of FY Short term appropriations scenario makes outlook for FTA apportionments to transit agencies unclear. 9
10 Tax provisions Senate Finance Committee Passed Tax Extenders EXPIRE Act: Includes 2 year (FY14 and 15) extension of Transit Commute Benefit and Alternative Fuels Tax Credit Full Senate attempted to consider, but debate was not completed House (Ways and Means Committee) has considered a number of extender provisions, but not EXPIRE Act Indications are that tax extenders are still a possibility in post-election, lame duck Congress. APTA paying close attention to all tax legislation and possibility of transportation revenue options. 10
11 Tax provisions Transit Commute Benefits Previous parity level expired at end of 2013, pushing the transit benefit down to $130 per month, while the parking benefit rose to $250. New score from Joint Committee on Taxation shows that parity can be achieved at $235 per month (lowering parking benefit and raising transit benefit). Actually raises $131 million for the U.S. Treasury. This will help in long term making case for parity. Extension more likely than permanence this year. 11
12 Trust Fund and Authorization Trust Fund Solvency Patch and MAP-21 Extension - Signed 8/8/14 $10.8 billion to Highway Trust Fund (transit, highway, highway safety programs) Extends MAP-21 programs until 5/31/2015 Provides funding at current program levels, anticipated to last also until 5/31/2015 Possibility for action on transportation revenues slim, but still under discussion. Trust fund revenue most likely to be considered in context of comprehensive tax reform discussions APTA and partners looking to keep pressure on. 12
13 Rail Legislation Two significant rail bills introduced recently House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee bipartisan leadership introduced the Passenger Rail Reform and Investment Act (PRRIA) Senators Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) and Charles Schumer (D-NY) introduced Rail Safety Improvement Act of 2014 Action unlikely on either before end of 2014, but both are likely to shape the debate for 2015 on rail. Information in packet, and staff will be available on Monday 13
14 Rail Legislation PRRIA Amtrak authorization with heavy emphasis on Northeast Corridor Authorization for Amtrak at recent historic appropriations RRIF and environmental streamlining reforms State grants RSIA 2014 $3 billion authorized for rail safety technology (including but not limited to PTC) Many new requirements Increased civil penalties for non-compliance repeals the FRA's authority to shield safety data generated by rail agencies from discovery in litigation 14
