"D. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, this appropriation includes and estimated $127,000,000 in the first year and $137,900,000 in the second year representing the revenues generated by the insurance license tax set out in § 58.1-2501 et seq, Code of Virginia.  These funds are to be deposited into the highway account of the Transportation Trust Fund and distributed based on the formulae set out in § 33.1-23.1 et seq, Code of Virginia."


Explanation
(This amendment directs one-third of the revenues generated by the insurance premium license tax to transportation in both years which would be distributed through the existing formula -- 40 percent to the primary system, and 30 percent each to the secondary and urban systems. This would provide an additional $264.9 million to transportation over the biennium.)
