GP is likely talking about US federal gas taxes -> Highway Trust Fund -> Federal highway spending.
Notably, though, the HTF spends more than it earns in gas tax revenue; the shortfall comes from the general fund. And also Federal highway spending does not cover all highway spending; the rest comes from the states[1][3]. Federal highway spending also does not cover local roads at all.
