The U.S. House Transportation and Infrastructure (T&I) Committee is set to consider its piece of a larger budget reconciliation bill Wednesday, considering measures to add $15 billion in air traffic control modernization and runway safety funding, as well as cut unobligated grant money for alternative fuels and low-emission technology projects.

T&I joins several House committees that this week are beginning to vote on their respective portions of a budget reconciliation package. The various measures will be knitted together in a larger bill to be considered by the full House. Also, the larger bill is expected to be a vehicle for the renewal of the 2017 Trump tax cuts and will possibly include an extension of bonus depreciation. The Ways and Means Committee is anticipated to consider its portion in May.
