AI-generated summary, report an errorThis Senate resolution states that the federal government should support school districts that invest in clean school buses, including electric school buses. It lists findings that diesel school bus exhaust adds to local air pollution, that children face higher health risks from air pollution, and that about 3 in 10 U.S. children ride a school bus. It notes that Congress has funded replacing diesel school buses in the past, including through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The resolution does not create a program or provide funding.
