Plain-English Summary

This bill would expand and improve programs that plant and maintain wildflowers and native plants along highways and roadsides to help bees, butterflies, and other pollinators survive. The changes would likely make it easier for states and transportation departments to participate in these programs and could provide more funding or resources to support pollinator-friendly landscaping instead of traditional mowing. This affects both environmental conservation efforts and how transportation agencies manage the land alongside roads.
