Highway Funding Flexibility Act of 2025

HR 3972, the Highway Funding Flexibility Act of 2025, redirects unobligated funds from two existing federal highway programs to allow states greater flexibility in how they use these resources. Specifically, it permits states to use unused funds from the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Formula Program and charging/fueling infrastructure grants for highway construction, bridge repairs, wildlife crossing projects, commercial vehicle parking, and related engineering - instead of being restricted to EV charging infrastructure. The bill requires that these funds be distributed to states based on their standard highway funding apportionment and ensures they remain available for their intended highway purposes without new obligation limits. This change affects states receiving federal highway funds who have unobligated balances from these specific programs.
