AI Summary

This bill aims to amend Title 23 of the United States Code to increase the federal share payable for certain transportation projects that benefit environmental justice communities. Specifically, it would allow the Secretary of Transportation to increase the federal share up to 100% of the total project cost for projects under the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement (CMAQ) Program that reduce adverse environmental exposures in low-income or minority-majority communities. The bill also requires the Secretary to submit a report analyzing whether the current CMAQ apportionment method best achieves the program's air quality goals and, if not, provide recommendations for a new apportionment method.
