S 1930 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Community Facilities Program for Rural Clean School Bus Infrastructure Act

This bill amends the Essential Community Facilities program to allow rural communities to use existing funding for clean school bus infrastructure. It directly affects rural school districts and communities seeking to adopt cleaner buses by permitting funds to cover charging infrastructure costs and planning activities. The key provision expands eligibility under current programs to include acquisition of charging equipment and technical support for clean bus deployment. It references the Energy Policy Act's definition of "clean school bus" but does not create new funding streams - only authorizes necessary appropriations for existing program use. The bill enables rural areas to leverage current resources for transitioning to zero-emission school transportation.
