Interstate Ferry Fairness Act

Referred to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.

2026-04-06

This bill would establish federal standards and requirements for ferry services that operate across state lines, likely aiming to create more consistent safety, pricing, or operational rules for passengers traveling between states. The legislation would affect ferry operators, commuters who rely on interstate ferry routes, and potentially state transportation agencies that oversee these services. By setting uniform federal guidelines, the bill intends to prevent states from creating conflicting regulations that could burden ferry companies or disadvantage certain routes.
