Wildfire Air Quality Sensor Expansion Act of 2026 expands air sensor programs to improve air quality monitoring in wildfire-prone areas.

The Wildfire Air Quality Sensor Expansion Act of 2026 aims to enhance air quality monitoring in areas affected by wildfires. The bill authorizes the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to award grants to air pollution control agencies for purchasing and operating portable air sensors. These sensors will complement existing air monitors and provide data for public mapping tools. The bill also expands the EPA's air sensor loan programs to include regions, states, and tribal lands that lack such programs, focusing on areas most impacted by wildfires.
