| 摘要： | OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS, there have been more than a few challenges when assessing the current state of freight transportation and logistics markets, ranging from the widespread impact of the pandemic, economic issues,geopolitical instability, as well as labor.However, one challenge that was intact a while back and still remains today is related to the Highway Trust Fund (HTF). As a primer, the HTF revenues are allocated for highway repairs, construction, and maintenance, and are supported by the federal fuel tax of 23.4 cents for diesel and 18.4 cents for gasoline-a number that has remained unchanged since 1993.What's more, because of inflation, the federal fuel tax does not provide enough funding into the HTF, which repeatedly has had to have an injection of funds from the general treasury the past few years in order to remain solvent. |
