Bill > HR3232

This bill, titled the "Federal-State Partnership for Intercity Passenger Rail Reauthorization Act", authorizes $7.5 billion annually for fiscal years 2027 through 2031 for intercity passenger rail grants, which are federal funds intended to support state-level rail transportation infrastructure and improvement projects. The bill specifically amends section 24911(h) of title 49 of the United States Code to establish these funding provisions. Additionally, the bill allows the Secretary of Transportation to use up to 2% of the appropriated funds each year for project management oversight, which means monitoring and supervising the implementation of rail grants to ensure they are being used effectively and efficiently. This legislation continues and expands federal support for improving passenger rail networks across different states, potentially enhancing transportation options, reducing road congestion, and supporting more sustainable transit infrastructure.
