Moving Transit Forward Act of 2025

This bill creates a new federal grant program to fund public transit improvements in cities. It provides 80% federal funding for urban transit systems to cover operating costs (like vehicle service), security enhancements (including personnel), and safety projects identified by safety committees. Recipients must certify they will maintain or increase their own funding levels for these services and cannot use funds to switch to third-party on-demand transit providers. The grants are allocated based on each city's reported transit operating expenses from the previous year.
