What it does

The ASAP Act would authorize competitive grants to help state and local governments upgrade accessibility at older rail transit systems—such as commuter rail and subway stations built before 1990—to meet current ADA standards for people with disabilities, including wheelchair users. Eligible entities could use funds for infrastructure repairs, accessibility planning, and coordination with disability advocacy groups, with grants covering up to 80% of project costs. The bill authorizes $350 million annually from the Mass Transit Account of the Highway Trust Fund, adjusted for inflation starting in FY 2028, to support these accessibility improvements nationwide.
