Trust Fund (other than the Mass Transit Account) to carry out each of 
the Federal-aid highway and highway safety construction programs (other 
than emergency relief) in fiscal year 2005 shall be deemed to be zero.
    (e) Sense of Congress on Adjustment to Align Highway Spending With 
Revenues.--It is the sense of Congress that, in any multiyear 
reauthorization of the Federal-aid highway program, the alignment of 
highway spending with revenues under section 251(b)(1)(B)(ii) of the 
Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 should be 
restructured to minimize year-to-year fluctuations in highway spending 
levels and to ensure the uniform enforcement of such levels.
    (f) Sense of Congress on Fully Guaranteed Funding.--It is the sense 
of Congress--
            (1) in any multiyear law reauthorizing of the Federal-aid 
        highway program enacted after the date of the enactment of this 
        Act, the level of obligation limitations for fiscal year 2005 
        under the highway category and the mass transit category in 
        section 8103 of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st 
        Century (2 U.S.C. 901 note), as amended and extended, should 
        equal the obligation limitations for such categories authorized 
        in such multiyear law;
            (2) the highway account category obligation limitation 
        level for fiscal year 2005 should be equal to the sum of the 
        Federal Highway Administration, National Highway Safety 
        Administration, and Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration 
        obligation limitations for fiscal year 2005 in such multiyear 
        law; and
            (3) the mass transit category obligation limitation level 
        for fiscal year 2005 should be equal to the sum of budget 
        authority and obligation limitation authorizations for Federal 
        Transit Administration programs for fiscal year 2005 in such 
        multiyear reauthorization.
