STAR Act
The STAR Act amends federal transportation laws to allow transit agencies to use funds for acquiring and displaying public art. By removing specific restrictions in the United States Code, the bill enables these agencies to incorporate art projects into their existing budgeting and planning processes. This change directly affects public transportation systems that wish to integrate artistic elements into their infrastructure without needing separate funding approvals.
