we therefore urge you to provide funding for this program at least $50 million in FY27, consistent with the level authorized in FY26.
Provide at least $50 million for the Restoration and Enhancement Grant Program in FY2027.
Occurrences
Evidence
Section 22105 authorized $50,000,000 for Restoration and Enhancement grants for each of fiscal years 2022 through 2026.
FRA lists FY 2021-2024 funding available for award as $153,845,680 and cites authority under 49 U.S.C. 22908.
The FY2027 mark covers the fiscal year ending September 30, 2027 and includes FRA Safety, R&D, CRISI, Crossing, and Amtrak headings.
The report describes FRA language for Safety and Operations, Railroad Research and Development, CRISI, Railroad Crossing Elimination, and Amtrak grants.
The House Appropriations Committee approved the FY2027 THUD measure by a 34 to 27 vote.
Roll Call 369 passed H.R. 3684, and Rep. Moulton is recorded as voting Yea.
Assessments
The promise concerns an FY2027 federal appropriation, and as of July 2, 2026 the FY2027 THUD appropriations process had advanced only through House committee action, not final enactment. The available House committee bill and report do not show a Restoration and Enhancement Grant Program account or a $50 million FY2027 appropriation. Moulton previously supported the infrastructure law authorizing the program through FY2026, but that does not satisfy the specific FY2027 funding promise. Because FY2027 appropriations remain pending, the outcome is not yet delivered or failed.
