Bill Summary
A BILL To reauthorize the Clean School Bus Program.
AI Summary
This bill, the Clean Commute for Kids Act of 2021, would reauthorize and expand the Clean School Bus Program, which provides grants, rebates, and loans to replace existing school buses with zero-emission electric buses. The bill defines key terms like "clean school bus," "eligible recipient," and "low-income community," and sets priorities for awarding funds to recipients serving the highest number of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunches. The bill also includes labor standards, Buy America requirements, and provisions for educating stakeholders and reporting on the program's implementation. The bill authorizes $2.5 billion per year through 2031 for the program, with at least $1 billion per year reserved for communities of color, indigenous communities, low-income communities, and areas with poor air quality.
