Wildlife Road Crossing Program Reauthorization Act of 2025

This bill would authorize $200 million per year from the Highway Trust Fund for fiscal years 2027 through 2031 for the federal wildlife crossings program, with the money available until spent. It would remove the word "pilot" from the program, making it a standing program under federal highway law. For grants to Indian Tribes, the federal government would pay 100 percent of project costs. The Secretary of Transportation could set aside up to 0.5 percent of program funds each year for technical and application help to Tribes, and up to another 0.5 percent to review and manage grants.
