Larsen's office said the BUILD America 250 Act passed committee 62-2 and would provide $580 billion over five years, including Washington priorities for ferries, transit, buses, culverts, bridges, highways, multimodal funding, and rail improvements.

Assessments

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): delivered. same_term A for effort

Same-term evidence shows actual transportation investments were delivered, not only proposed: 2026 DOT grants funded transit, rail, bridge, street-safety, and bus infrastructure in Washington, and FY2026 appropriations signed into law included Larsen-supported/requested funds for electric buses, port infrastructure, and rail-yard capacity. The pending BUILD America 250 Act supports additional effort but is not needed for full delivery because concrete road, rail, transit, and safety investments matching the promise were already enacted or released during Larsen's current federal term.
