Slow Down Act
Key claim: The Slow Down Act (HR9852, 119th Congress) was referred to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.
Abstract
(HR9852 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-07-22): Referred to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.
Why this matters
The Slow Down Act signals continued congressional interest in speed-related traffic safety measures, an area tied to pedestrian and vulnerable road user fatalities. Until bill text is available, the practical effect on DOT/NHTSA speed management authority or state programs is unknown; tracking committee action establishes a baseline for future substantive review.
