Referred to the Subcommittee on Highways and Transit.
Summary
The legislation changes federal formula‑grant rules so that capital projects for same‑day paratransit can receive up to 90% of costs and operating assistance can cover up to 80% when agencies meet minimum standards. It targets public transit agencies that serve people with disabilities, giving them more money to provide flexible, same‑day rides. The goal is to improve mobility and independence for millions of Americans who currently must schedule paratransit a day in advance.
