The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is facilitating significant investments in clean energy and infrastructure projects across the United States. Key initiatives include funding for electric school buses, wastewater treatment upgrades, and affordable housing. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is distributing substantial grants for electric school buses, with notable allocations including $12.9 million for Rhode Island, $7.7 million for Maine, and $91 million for California. Additionally, funds are being directed towards improving wastewater treatment facilities in South Burlington, Vermont, and Middletown, Maryland. The Chambers Bay Access Project in Washington State is receiving $500,000, while Illinois and Indiana are benefiting from investments to clean the Grand Calumet River. The Seaford School District is also a recipient of EPA funding. Furthermore, $34.5 million is being allocated for 15 community projects in Illinois. Prince George’s County will receive new electric buses. Overall, these investments aim to reduce carbon emissions, improve public health, and support sustainable development.
Each year, I have the opportunity to request "Community Project Funding" for community projects in WA-09. This year I selected 15 community projects that would tackle housing costs, strengthen infrastructure, improve public safety, and more. Learn more: https://t.co/Lz4224yjOn
