AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would authorize $100 million per year from the Highway Trust Fund for the federal wildlife crossings program for fiscal years 2027 through 2031, with the money available until spent. It would remove the word "pilot" from the program's name in federal law. For grants that benefit small, rural, or disadvantaged communities, the federal government would pay 90 percent of project costs, and the Secretary could raise this to 100 percent if the grantee cannot pay its share. The Secretary could also set aside up to 0.5 percent of program funds each year for technical help to Tribal applicants and up to 0.5 percent for administering grants.
