Small Communities Transit Improvement Act

Sponsored By: Senator Sen. Moran, Jerry [R-KS]

Introduced

Summary

Increases the share of formula transit grants for small transit-intensive cities from 3% to 5%. This bill would amend 49 U.S.C. 5336(h)(3) to require a 5% apportionment for small transit-intensive cities. The change reallocates existing formula grant dollars to favor those cities while leaving the program’s structure and overall funding authority unchanged.

More transit money for small cities

This bill would raise the share of formula transit grants for small transit‑intensive cities from 3% to 5%. That change would shift a bigger slice of existing federal transit formula money to those cities and their agencies. The bill text does not change total funding, eligibility rules, or a start date. Riders and transit workers in those small cities would be the main beneficiaries.
