The federal Diesel Emissions Reduction Program, which provides grants and loans to help replace or retrofit older, dirtier diesel engines — things like school buses, freight trucks, and construction equipment — is set to expire. This one-line bill extends the program's funding authorization through 2029. Communities near highways, ports, and rail yards, where diesel pollution is heaviest, stand to benefit the most.
