Contact Your Congressional Representative Immediately About Submitting a Funding Request
The U.S. House of Representatives just released instructions on Community Project Funding requests.
Under the rules of the House Appropriations Committee, members of Congress can each submit up to 15 Community Project Funding requests for consideration during fiscal year 2025 appropriations. The Appropriations Committee then considers these requests. This is a highly competitive process, and most requests will not receive funding.
Each district has a separate process for submitting these requests, however, the quick turnaround time is set by the Appropriations Chair. The League of Oregon Cities suggests reaching out directly to your U.S. Representative for specific information on this process.
