The Affordable Commutes Act of 2025 directs the Secretary of Transportation to conduct an investigation into the price setting practices of privately owned toll roads. This investigation will specifically look for instances of price gouging, unfair practices, or unreasonable toll pricing, with findings of such issues referred to the Attorney General and Federal Trade Commission. Additionally, the bill requires a comprehensive study on the feasibility and fiscal implications of the federal government purchasing these private toll roads and subsequently transferring their ownership to the respective states. This study must assess potential benefits for consumers, such as lower toll costs, and outline the necessary procedural framework for such acquisitions and transfers. Ultimately, the Secretary must submit a report to Congress within one year, detailing the investigation's results, the study's findings, and recommendations to address pricing concerns and facilitate the proposed ownership changes.
