Appropriations Requests

My office is pleased to participate in the annual appropriations process to obtain federal funding for important local projects in California’s Third Congressional district for Fiscal Year 2025.

As a reminder, there are three types of requests I can submit to the Appropriations Committee for consideration:

Community Project Funding requests: Members may request funding for specific projects in their communities, so long as the projects have a federal connection and meet other requirements established by federal law, House Rules, and the Committee to ensure only high-quality projects are requested and funded. For Example, in FY24 we provided: $1,040,000 to City of Folsom for the Folsom Lake Crossing Safety Improvement Phase II Project.

Appropriations Programmatic requests: Members may request specific funding levels for agencies and programs funded in the twelve appropriations bills. Example: Fund the ReConnect program for $2,000,000 in FY25.

Appropriations Language requests: Members may request bill language or report language directing or encouraging specific actions by federal agencies. Example: “The Committee encourages USDA to study the impact of expanded broadband on rural communities.”
