Bipartisan BUILD America 250 Act lines up historic five-year infrastructure push
TL;DR Summary
House Transportation and Infrastructure leaders released the text of the BUILD America 250 Act, a bipartisan five-year surface-transportation bill that would fund major upgrades to roads, bridges, transit, rail, and safety programs. The plan includes the largest-ever investment in bridges (over $50B), expands passenger rail and safety measures, creates an autonomous commercial vehicle framework, and strengthens the Highway Trust Fund with new revenue. The lawmakers say the bill emphasizes efficiency, innovation, and faster project delivery, with hearings held and markup planned before the current authorization expires in September 2026.
