Key Points

This bill would create a National Transit Workforce Center to help public transportation agencies find, hire, and train employees like bus drivers and mechanics.
A nonprofit organization would receive federal grants to run the center and develop training programs for workers in big cities, small towns, and tribal communities.
The center would focus on teaching workers how to use new technologies and would help transit agencies improve their safety and reliability.
The center would also study workforce trends and provide data to help local transit systems keep their staff and plan for the future.
