Bill introduced in Congress — not yet passed by either chamber, and not law.

Motor Vehicle Modernization Act of 2026

Key claim: The Motor Vehicle Modernization Act of 2026 (HR7389) was ordered to be reported as amended by a 48-1 vote in the 119th Congress.

Abstract

(HR7389 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-05-21): Ordered to be Reported (Amended) by the Yeas and Nays: 48 - 1.

Why this matters

Motor vehicle standards modernization legislation moving out of committee with a near-unanimous 48-1 vote signals broad bipartisan support for updating NHTSA-administered vehicle rules. The strong committee margin increases the likelihood of floor action, which could reshape the baseline regulatory framework other Transportation-area items (FMVSS updates, ADS rules) sit atop.
