The Transit Crime Reporting Act of 2025 requires the Secretary of Transportation to submit annual reports to Congress documenting all crimes occurring on federally funded public transit systems, breaking down incidents into violent and non-violent categories starting within 90 days of the law's enactment. The bill also establishes a 13-member task force led by the Federal Transit Administration to develop recommendations for improving safety on transit systems, drawing expertise from transit agencies, law enforcement, transit workers, and transit industry associations across different geographic regions. The task force will deliver an interim report to Congress within one year and a final report with recommendations within two years, focusing on how federal policy changes could help enhance transit safety. The legislation affects all public transit systems that receive federal funding through the Federal Transit Administration, which includes urban, suburban, and rural transit authorities nationwide. No new funding is specified in the bill; it primarily creates reporting and advisory requirements using existing federal resources.
