Senator Mike Crapo introduces S. 5608: Secure Rural Schools Reauthorization Act of 2026

We have received text from S. 5608: Secure Rural Schools Reauthorization Act of 2026. This bill was received on 2026-09-30, and currently has 3 cosponsors.

Here is a short summary of the bill:

This bill would extend several parts of the

Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act of 2000

, which is a federal program that helps counties with a lot of federally owned land. Because those counties cannot collect property taxes from federal land, the program provides payments to help support local services such as schools, roads, and other county functions.

What the bill changes

• Extends federal payments to counties: It would continue the “secure payments” program through 2029 instead of ending in 2026.
• Extends distribution rules for eligible counties: It would update the deadline tied to how those payments are distributed to counties, also moving it from 2026 to 2029 .
• Extends authority for special projects on federal land: It would lengthen the time period during which funds can be used for special projects on federal land, pushing certain expiration dates from 2028/2029 to 2031/2032 .
• Extends a resource advisory committee pilot program: It would continue that pilot program through 2029 instead of ending in 2026.
• Makes several technical wording fixes: These are minor drafting corrections that do not appear to change the basic policy, such as fixing grammar and clarifying language in the existing law.

Practical effect

In plain terms, the bill would keep the current rural county payment program and related land-management project authority in place for a few more years. That means eligible counties would continue receiving federal support, and local advisory processes and project funding tools would remain available for a longer period.
