Abstract
(HR8514 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-04-27): Referred to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.
Why this matters
Active transportation legislation shapes federal support for walking, biking, and non-motorized access — affecting safety outcomes for vulnerable road users and recreational access to public lands. Tracking bills like HR8514 alongside HSIP-related proposals shows how Congress is layering active-transportation policy across highway safety and public-lands programs. Practical effects depend on enactment and appropriations, neither of which has occurred yet.
