IG10101 Surface Transportation Authorization Legislation: Timelines and Extensions 2026-09-14T04:00:00Z 2026-09-15T12:38:03Z Active Infographics Lena A. Maman, Kezee Procita Transportation Funding / Surface transportation authorization acts are multiyear legislation that authorize spending on federal highway and public transportation programs, surface transportation safety and research, and, since 2015, intercity passenger rail programs. The most recent authorization from FY2022 through FY2026 was part of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA; P.L. 117-58). Congress has extended the IIJA authorizations through December 11, 2026 (P.L. 119-103). Historically, Congress has extended surface transportation authorizations beyond their expiration dates before passing new authorization bills. This infographic compiles timing and voting information on enacted surface transportation authorization legislation as well as related extensions since 1991.
