SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

The amendment limits the use of Fund moneys to various transportation purposes. The General Assembly may borrow from the Fund for other purposes only by a two-thirds vote of members in each house and the loan must be repaid within four years. Any reduction in appropriations to either Fund will be treated as a borrowing from the Fund.  This resolution is incorporated into HJR 527.
