Lets D.C. get federal transportation money like states do for buses and roads.
Currently, the District of Columbia doesn't qualify for certain federal transportation grants in the same way states do. This bill would change that. It would allow D.C. to apply for and receive funding for things like bus systems, road safety, and culvert repairs, just like any state. This means more federal money could flow to D.C. for its transportation needs.
Currently, the District of Columbia is not treated as a state for specific federal transportation grant programs, meaning it cannot access certain funding. If this bill becomes law, D.C. would be explicitly included as a state for these programs, allowing it to apply for and receive federal money for projects like bus system improvements, road safety, and culvert repairs.
