Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
The Piers Reinvestment Act would expand federal funding opportunities for repairs and improvements to municipal piers by making them eligible for grants under existing transportation resilience programs. Specifically, the bill amends federal law to allow piers to qualify for resilience improvement grants and at-risk coastal infrastructure grants that were previously available only for other transportation projects. The legislation would increase funding for these grant programs from $300 million to $500 million, providing an additional $200 million for coastal infrastructure work. Local governments and municipalities with aging or vulnerable pier infrastructure would be the primary beneficiaries of this expanded funding access. The bill was introduced in April 2026 and referred to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.
