This Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) briefing discusses the role of federal programs and research in advancing public transit in the United States, emphasizing the economic returns of transit investments and their impact on community resilience and emissions reduction.

• Public transit in the United States is provided by approximately 6,800 providers serving rural and urban areas via bus, ferry, tram, or subway. These systems are described as tools for reducing local air pollution, improving land use, and supporting millions of jobs.
• Federal investments in public transit provide significant economic benefits, with a reported return of $5 in economic returns for every single dollar invested.
