Key issues likely to be in play include: J. The Economy The crisis in the nation's financial markets is increasingly curtailing the ability of municipal governments even those with AAA credit ratings to borrow funds for ready -to -go projects. Construction of roads, bridges, schools, hospitals, sewage treatment plants and libraries, the bedrocks of any community, are now at risk of being indefinitely delayed or cancelled F' because the cost of borrowing is too high. At the same time, housing foreclosures remain at an all -time high in many com munities triggering a decline in property values and the property taxes that fund critical services for our citizens. In addition SCHE°ULCS♦ F y/j Dedui to economic stimulus packages and the 700 billion economic recovery plan, find out what additional steps the federal gov- ernment might take to stabilize the economy and help local economies. ass Transportation Financin With the current authorization of the federal transportation funding program set to expire in 2009, Congress will embark upon an important debate over the future of our country's national surface transportation plan. As part of this discussion, Congress will have to make decisions about how to address the shortfall in gas tax revenues for the Highway Trust Fund, how to repair and maintain the nations aging infrastructure, how to address concerns over the impact of transportation on the environment, and ways to ensure that the program meets local transportation and economic development goals. Alternative Energy and Climate Change i M1 R Energy and environmental issues of concern to local governments continue to be an important congressional issue. Congress continues to discuss and debate the specifics of comprehensive climate change legislation that would reduce the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Alternative and renewable fuels, such as solar and wind energy, the use of 0.' nuclear and clean coal technologies, green jobs and the economy, energy and environmental block grants for local govern- ments and other issues related to climate change will all be topics for this debate. Immigration Reform Uncertainty over federal immigration policy continues to impact cities and towns. Until comprehensive action is taken, communities will continue to face the challenges of immigration on their own. Faced with federal city rec- ognize that local governments cannot wait and are developing new strategies to take constructive action locally to manage growing immigrant populations. Em� RZ Federal Funding for Local Activities The federal budget continues to be under intense pressure due to war spending, the federal deficit, the economy, mandatory spending, and renewed emphasis on fiscal restraint. This means that federal programs important to cities and towns, r„� t� =•,i including the Community Development Block Grant program, the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant pro- gram, public safety, and transportation, will continue to be vulnerable to attack. Housing and Neighborhood Stabilization With mortgage foreclosures, predatory lending, inadequate financial literacy, and market volatility continuing to threaten family economic self sufficiency, neighborhood stability, and the national economy, Congress continues to identify resources and mechanisms to preserve homeownership and stabilize neighborhoods, including stronger consumer education and pro- tections and market interventions. Telecommunications Local government authority to offer municipal broadband services to citizens, to control rights of way, and to collect franchise ^p fees and taxes remain under attack in federal regulatory and legislative arenas. \Municipal officials must be knowledgeable about emerging technologies and be prepared to refute industry arguments that local governments are an impediment to competition. Education Reform 2 Discussions are underway in Congress regarding education reform programs. An NLC Task Force has developed a set of L recommendations for reforming K -12 and adult education programs to make them more responsive to the changing fiscal cli- mate. Local government officials many of whom have little control over schools but are often blamed when they fail must be prepared to advocate for needed reforms and for the funding that will be required to meet educational program goals. Public Safety Public safety challenges, both new and old, are forcing local governments to stretch their dollars farther than ever before. As cities across the country face severe budget shortfalls, a productive partnership that supports our first responders is more important than ever. Federal cooperation with local government is crucial in keeping police patrolling our communities, implementing new strategies-aga crime, and urenarina for natura and man-made disasters.
