The Neighborhood Tree Act of 2026 aims to enhance urban forestry by providing states and communities with more resources to plant and maintain trees. The main goal is to improve the health and resilience of urban forests, which offer significant benefits to communities, including better air quality, reduced heat, and improved public health. Key provisions of the Act include the establishment of a Neighborhood Tree Fund. This fund will provide financial assistance to eligible entities such as states, Indian tribes, and local governments or community groups.
