No Desire for Streetcars Act
HR 3822, the "No Desire for Streetcars Act," prohibits federal funding for streetcar projects across multiple transportation programs. The bill amends four key transportation funding laws (surface transportation block grants, congestion mitigation grants, urbanized area grants, and fixed guideway capital grants) to explicitly ban the use of allocated funds for streetcar procurement, operation, or maintenance. This directly affects state and local governments receiving these federal grants, preventing them from using the funds for streetcar-related expenses. The legislation creates a clear, specific restriction on funding without altering other program provisions or making broader policy statements.
