house 09/18/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to create a grant program that helps states digitize county road information and build centralized, publicly accessible road databases. Our goal is to improve rural commerce, enhance public safety, and make navigation easier through better mapping and data accessibility.

A pilot program that respects state control while pushing tech forward—finally, a middle ground that hopefully won’t get bogged down in politics.

Rural communities deserve 21st century tools, not nostalgia for paper maps. This bill’s a small step toward equity on the information superhighway.

Turning dusty county maps into digital gold—who knew government could be this high-tech and humane? Public data access means transparency wins again.

Digitize the roads, not just the paperwork; if they nail the execution, this could be a win for both commerce and safety.

Digitizing every dirt road won’t boost commerce if red tape slows the shovels. Let states handle roads without another federal mandate, please.

Looks like a practical way to modernize road info without reinventing the wheel. Grant funds plus transparency—sounds bipartisan enough to work.

Finally, a bill that uses tech to bridge the rural-urban divide instead of walls. Digitizing roads means smarter infrastructure, not more bureaucracy.
right-leaning 09/18/2025
More government data and grants — are we mapping roads or paving the way for federal overreach? Just another expensive scheme for bureaucrats.

Publicly accessible datasets? Might as well hand the keys over to Silicon Valley and big gov. Rural counties need freedom, not digital handcuffs.
