Referred to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.
This resolution states the House of Representatives position that the United States should aim to eliminate roadway deaths by 2050. It is a non-binding statement of opinion and does not create law, change funding, or by itself require any agency or official to take action. The text urges Congress and the Department of Transportation to work toward that goal, supports better data and safety measures, and recommends using the term "crash" instead of "accident."
This nonbinding House resolution expresses support for the goal of reducing U.S. roadway fatalities to zero by 2050.
It urges Congress and the Department of Transportation to adopt a data-driven safe systems approach, improve crash data collection, implement proven countermeasures, address safety disparities, and prefer the term "crash" over "accident."
As a House sense resolution it does not create binding law; adoption by the House is plausible but becoming binding federal law is unlikely without separate statute.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this bill is a well‑documented and clearly worded sense of the House resolution that sets an aspirational national target and urges executive and legislative attention. It compiles relevant data and endorses policy framing (safe systems, terminology change) without creating binding obligations.
Support for goal: strong (liberal) versus cautious (conservative).

Likely strongly supportive of the resolution’s goal and safety-centered framing.
Praises emphasis on data, equity, safe systems, and proven countermeasures, but may press for concrete funding and regulatory action to follow.
Generally favorable to the goal and nonbinding nature, viewing it as a useful national statement.
Wants clearer implementation plans, cost estimates, and state-federal role clarity before endorsing major programs.
May view the goal as laudable in principle but be cautious about federal overreach.
Supports safety improvements but worries about regulatory mandates, costs, data collection expansion, and infringing state discretion.
