National Mass Transportation Assistance Act

The National Mass Transportation Assistance Act of 1974 is a United States federal law signed into law by President Gerald Ford on November 26, 1974 that extended the Urban Mass Transportation Act to cover operating costs as well as construction costs. This act was the culmination of a major lobbying effort by the transit industry and urban interests to secure federal operating assistance for transit.
