Coalition Letter to Congressional Leadership on H.R. 7148, Which Contains the FY 2026 THUD Spending

The undersigned organizations urge Congress to pass H.R. 7148, which contains the FY 2026 Transportation, Housing and Urban Development (THUD) spending bill and fully-funds core highway, public transportation and airport construction programs at previously authorized levels. More than 100,000 transportation projects are currently advancing with federal funding support, and the continuity provided by timely action on FY2026 appropriations ensures state departments of transportation and local public transportation agencies can keep these projects moving. These projects improve safety, mobility, and economic prosperity in nearly every community and allow businesses to continue investing in the people and equipment necessary to build.
