Adjusts state apportionments for federal highway programs to ensure no state receives less than 95% of its applicable percentage.
The Highway Formula Fairness Act modifies the calculation for state apportionments in federal highway programs. It ensures that each state's combined apportionments for specified programs do not fall below 95% of their applicable percentage. This change applies from fiscal year 2027 onwards, affecting how funds are distributed among states for national highway performance, surface transportation block grants, highway safety improvements, congestion mitigation, air quality improvements, national highway freight, and carbon reduction programs.
