This funding will pay for improvements to sanitary sewer infrastructure along Straw Avenue in Bellevue\u2014an important move for public health and safety and the longevity of the wastewater system.\n\n\u201cStrong, reliable, and well-funded public infrastructure keeps our communities running smoothly and safely,\u201d said Congressman Deluzio. \u201cThis is a win for the Borough of Bellevue and its residents, and I\u2019m thrilled to celebrate with them. Thank you to former Congressman Conor Lamb for his support of this project during the 117th Congress.\u201d\n\n\u201cThe Borough is extremely excited and appreciative of the funding we've received. This funding allows us to continue with the upkeep and to update part of our failing infrastructure, always a major concern for municipalities,\u201d said Jim Kelly, Director of Administrative Services for the Borough of Bellevue. \u201cWithout funding like this, we would not be able to complete these very important projects that deeply impact public health and safety, and we are grateful to Congressman Deluzio and his staff for their support.\u201d\n\nThe sewer improvement funding is appropriated by Congress and granted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) through the State and Tribal Assistance Grants\u2019 (STAG) Clean Water State Revolving Fund.\n\nThe Trump Administration\u2019s efforts to freeze funding and pause federal grants has created significant uncertainty for grantees, varying by agency and program. As of now, courts have paused many of these freezes. However, Congressman Deluzio\u2019s office will continue to monitor these developments and fight to make sure this congressionally-authorized funding continues going to projects that make life better for Western Pennsylvanians. If you are the recipient of a federal grant and have been notified that this funding is no longer available to you or are experiencing other issues accessing your lawfully appropriated funds, please share your concerns with Congressman Deluzio\u2019s office at PA17Grants@mail.house.gov.\n\n###", 1, "2026-07-23T07:31:02Z", "2026-07-23T07:32:26Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://deluzio.house.gov/media/press-releases/congressman-deluzio-celebrates-720000-sewer-upgrades-bellevue-borough"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 4.113753326237202, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
