This package included my Cleaner TRAILS Initiative, which would make it easier for travelers to use electric vehicles on public lands. It would add zero-emission fueling infrastructure at National Parks and U.S. Forest Service Sites – including sites here in Tahoe – and near airports.

Cortez Masto discussed her Cleaner TRAILS Initiative as part of her bill package to make EV use easier on public lands by adding zero-emission fueling infrastructure at parks, Forest Service sites, and airports.

GovInfo lists S. 5222 as introduced August 3, 2026 by Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, read twice, and referred to the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. The full title establishes the Cleaner TRAILS Initiative for zero-emission vehicle fueling infrastructure on National Forest System land, National Park System land, and related land.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Cortez Masto formally introduced the matching Cleaner TRAILS bill, but the recorded action shows referral to committee rather than passage or enactment.

In prepared remarks, Cortez Masto said she introduced a three-bill EV package that included the Cleaner TRAILS Initiative to add zero-emission fueling infrastructure at National Parks, U.S. Forest Service sites, and near airports, and to support electric cars, bikes, boats, and ATVs.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): A recent official statement reaffirms her support for the exact initiative and its covered vehicle types, but does not show final enactment or completed infrastructure deployment.

Cortez Masto materially advanced the Cleaner TRAILS Initiative during the same federal Senate term by introducing S. 5222 on August 3, 2026, matching the promised zero-emission fueling infrastructure for National Park System land, National Forest System land, related areas near airports, and multiple vehicle types. However, the latest available status shows the bill only introduced and referred to the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, with no passage, enactment, or completed infrastructure expansion shown. That supports partial credit for active legislative support, not full delivery.
