The Senate Environment and Public Works Committee's reauthorization proposal is a six-year bill having the same name and bill number as the Administration's proposal.

In October and November of 2003, the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee drafted and marked up The Safe, Accountable, Flexible, and Efficient Transportation Equity Act of 2003 (SAFETEA), as S.1072, as reported.

S.1072, as reported covers only highway programs, not safety or transit, which are under the jurisdiction of other committees.
