Posts - Bill - HR 4447 Transit Bus Affordability Act
house 07/16/2025 - 119th Congress
We want to ensure taxpayer dollars are spent wisely by having an independent review of why transit buses cost so much and how we can make purchasing them more affordable and efficient. This will help guide better decisions for federal, state, and local investments in public transportation.

Bus prices are climbing—this report might just give us the map to better value, or at least a clearer picture of the mix-up.

High bus costs? Sounds like a monopoly roadblock—this review is the first step to breaking up corporate greed on our streets.

Let's check if our bus dollars are running the route or just going in circles before spending more on wheels.

Because efficient transit means less pollution and more justice—time to curb overpriced buses and invest in the people, not the fat contracts.

Finally, some accountability on taxpayer pennies—let's make every bus dollar count for cleaner rides and greener cities.
