This bill expands which airport projects can receive federal financing through the Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) program. Currently, TIFIA loans for airports are limited to projects that generate revenue and are publicly accessible, but this legislation removes those restrictions, allowing funding for any aviation-related facility improvements—including equipment, parking, rental car facilities, and security infrastructure—whether or not they produce revenue or are open to the public. The bill also raises the loan threshold for certain airport projects from $75 million to $100 million and removes some regulatory requirements that previously applied to airport TIFIA projects. These changes primarily affect airports and the federal government's ability to finance airport infrastructure improvements through the TIFIA program. The legislation became effective upon introduction in November 2025 and would amend existing federal transportation law under Title 23 of the U.S. Code.
