Barriers to Suicide Act of 2025
Key claim: The Barriers to Suicide Act of 2025 (HR3505) was introduced in the 119th Congress and referred to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.
Abstract
(HR3505 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2025-05-20): Referred to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.
Why this matters
Suicide-prevention barriers on bridges and other transportation structures are a recognized public-safety intervention, and federal legislation could shape whether and how DOT-funded infrastructure incorporates them. HR3505’s referral to the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee marks the initial procedural step; practical safety effects depend on whether the bill advances and what funding or design mandates it ultimately carries.
