Improving Accessibility Through Microtransit Act

This bill establishes a 5-year federal grant program to improve accessible microtransit services for people with disabilities or mobility impairments, particularly wheelchair users. It provides up to $3 million per grant to eligible state/local governments, tribes, or transit agencies to fund wheelchair-accessible vehicles, driver training, technology, and services in areas lacking accessible transportation. Priority is given to projects addressing accessibility gaps, creating economic benefits (like job access), and ensuring low-income users can access services without smartphones or credit cards. The program requires interior camera systems on vehicles for safety and applies standard labor rules to funded projects, with $20 million authorized for the pilot.
