A bill to modify a provision relating to adjustments of certain State apportionments for Federal highway programs, and for other purposes.

# S 3972 Summary **What the Bill Would Do:** This bill would change how federal highway funding is distributed among states. Specifically, it would modify the rules for adjusting the amounts of money each state receives from the federal government for highway construction and maintenance projects. The bill's exact provisions aren't detailed in the available information, but it falls under transportation and infrastructure funding. **Who It Affects:** States would be the primary stakeholders, as the bill directly impacts how much federal highway money each state receives. This could indirectly affect local governments, construction companies, and drivers who use highways that depend on this federal funding. **Current Status:** As of now, S 3972 remains in committee, meaning it hasn't advanced to a floor vote in the Senate.

The bill was introduced by Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas). Without more specific details about the proposed changes, it's unclear what impact the modifications might have—whether they would benefit some states over others or how they would alter the current funding formula. The bill would need committee approval and Senate passage to become law.
