District of Columbia Transportation Funding Equality Act

United States119th CongressHR-6950House of Representatives
Updated: Jan 7, 2026

Summary

This legislation seeks to ensure the District of Columbia receives equitable access to federal transportation funding by treating it as a State for specific grant programs. It amends title 49, United States Code, to include the District of Columbia in formula grants for buses, ensuring it is considered alongside other states for these allocations. Furthermore, the bill extends this treatment to apportionments based on growing and high-density state formula factors, allowing the District to benefit from these calculations. It also makes the District of Columbia eligible for the National Culvert Removal, Replacement, and Restoration Grant Program and explicitly includes it in the Safe Streets and Roads for All Grant Program . These changes aim to provide the District of Columbia with the same funding opportunities as states for critical infrastructure and safety projects.
