Community Facilities Program for Rural Clean School Bus Infrastructure Act

HR 4455, the Community Facilities Program for Rural Clean School Bus Infrastructure Act, amends the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development Act to allow rural communities using its essential community facilities program funds to cover clean school bus infrastructure. Specifically, it permits recipients of these loans or grants to use funds for purchasing charging infrastructure, labor costs for installation/maintenance, and planning activities supporting clean school bus adoption. The bill defines "clean school bus" using the Energy Policy Act of 2005 and authorizes necessary funding for these purposes. It directly affects rural communities receiving essential community facilities program funds, enabling them to modernize school bus infrastructure with clean energy solutions.
