AI Summary

This bill, if enacted, would create the Transit Pass Pilot Program to be administered by the California Department of Transportation. The program would provide free or reduced-fare transit passes to eligible participants, including public middle and high school students eligible for Title I funding, California community college students who qualify for fee waivers, and California State University or University of California students receiving certain financial aid. The department would develop guidelines for the program's application and selection process, and would be required to report on the outcomes and statewide status of transit pass programs by January 1, 2020. The pilot program would be effective only upon an appropriation of funds and would be repealed on January 1, 2022.
