Summary of Bill S 5626

Bill 118 s 5626, also known as the "Federal Share Modification Act," aims to adjust the federal government's financial contribution to operating costs for specific projects that receive grants through the Formula Grants to Rural Areas Program of the Federal Transit Administration (FTA).
