It could also impact federal transportation funding programs more broadly. **Current Status** As of now, HR 6168 is in committee, meaning it has been introduced but has not yet advanced to a full vote by the House of Representatives. The bill was sponsored by Representative Jeff Hurd (R-Colorado). --- *Note: More detailed information about specific provisions would require access to the full bill text, which was not provided.*.
