Unlikely to pass

This bill faces strong opposition from lawmakers who support public transit and urban housing. It is unlikely to gain the bipartisan support needed to pass both chambers.

Key Points

  • This bill would stop the federal government from providing loans or financial help for building projects near train or bus stations. These projects, often called transit-oriented developments, usually include apartments, offices, or stores built within walking distance of public transportation.
  • The plan targets two major federal programs that currently help fund these developments. If passed, developers could no longer use these specific low-interest government loans to build housing or businesses near transit hubs.
  • The bill also shuts down a pilot program that helps cities plan for these types of neighborhoods. This would force local governments and private builders to find other ways to pay for these projects without federal help.
  • The goal of the bill is to ensure that federal transportation money is used strictly for infrastructure like roads and tracks rather than for private commercial or residential buildings.
