Community Project Funding

 

Community Project Funding Requests 

 

The Community Project Funding program offers local entities a new opportunity to work directly with their member of Congress to bring awareness to local priorities that are deserving of federal funding and partnership.  This program has been designed to utilize the best parts of the past “earmark” process by directly connecting Congressional action with outputs in the community, but with stronger guardrails to ensure accountability, transparency, and strong community support. This is a unique and exciting opportunity for our community to identify and advance priorities worthy of funding consideration.
