Thriving Communities Act of 2025

The Thriving Communities Act of 2025 establishes a federal grant program to help fast-growing communities develop infrastructure projects, particularly those connecting housing with public transit. It authorizes $100 million annually for the Transportation Secretary and $5.5 million for the Housing Secretary to provide technical assistance and capacity-building support. The program requires regular reports to Congress on funding methods, coordination between agencies, and metrics used to distribute grants. This directly affects local governments in rapidly expanding areas seeking to improve transportation and housing infrastructure through federal support.
