Bill overview
The Highways First Act aims to restrict the movement of funds intended for highway projects to the Department of Transportation. Specifically, it modifies existing laws to prevent the transfer of certain highway funds, ensuring they remain dedicated to highway projects. This legislation seeks to prioritize highway infrastructure development by limiting the use of these funds for other transportation modes. It achieves this through changes to both Title 23 and Title 49 of the United States Code.
