Community Project Funding Requests

In 2021, the U.S. House of Representatives implemented Community Project Funding (CPF), which provides Members of Congress more input in the funding decisions that directly impact their districts by allowing local community groups to request project funding. 

I am allowed to submit 15 Community Project Requests. Below are the lists of project requests I am submitting for FY2026 and those that were submitted for FY2025. These funding requests may or may not be approved by the relevant committee and then must proceed through the regular legislative process:
