The biggest investment in America\u2019s infrastructure in a generation, since it was signed into law two years ago the IIJA has already infused over $1.07 billion into more than 60 transformative projects in Rep. Deluzio\u2019s Western Pennsylvania district.\n\n\u201cWe are finally rebuilding this country\u2019s lousy infrastructure thanks to President Biden\u2019s Infrastructure Law,\u201d said Rep. Deluzio. \u201cThat means shovels in the ground, union jobs, and a heck of a lot of investment to make life better for folks in Western Pennsylvania: major improvements to our roads, bridges, airports, locks and dams, and more.\u201d\n\nSome examples of the Infrastructure Law investments in Pennsylvania\u2019s 17th Congressional District include:\n\nUpper Ohio Navigation Project/Montgomery Locks & Dam, Monaca, PA: $857 million.\n\nPittsburgh International Airport (PIT): $45.6 million ($23.5 million in discretionary funding, $22.1 million in formula funding)\n\nBrownfield Remediation in the Borough of Ambridgeand Beaver County\u2019s Darlington Brickyard: $1 million ($500,000 each).\n\nAnd many more.\n\nA list of Infrastructure Law funded projects in PA-17 compiled by Congressman Deluzio\u2019s office is available here. NOTE: this list was compiled in November 2023 and does not include statewide funding that is not specifically allocated to entities within Pennsylvania\u2019s 17th District.\n\nThe Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act is making a big difference all across the Commonwealth. The White House has already announced $13.8 billion of the Infrastructure Law is coming to Pennsylvania, with more than 330 specific projects identified for federal funding.\n\nSince the IIJA became law two years ago, approximately $10 billion has been announced for Pennsylvania transportation investments\u2014roads, bridges, public transit, ports, and airports\u2013and around $657 million has been announced for clean water and water infrastructure in the Commonwealth. More details on the current IIJA funding allocations for Pennsylvania available here.\n\nAs of today, more than 706,000 Pennsylvania households are already saving on their monthly internet bill thanks to cost-saving provisions in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. Additionally, Pennsylvania received $1.2 billion in Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) Program funding to connect everyone in the state to reliable highspeed internet. Congressman Deluzio was proud to attend an event in Beaver Falls this year to celebrate this historic funding. Many more projects will be added in the coming months, as funding opportunities become grant awards and as formula funds become specific projects.\n\nThe Biden-Harris Administration has already announced nearly $400 billion in funds for the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, including over 40,000 specific projects and awards in more than 4,500 communities across America. These investments are creating millions of good-paying jobs, including a record-high number of jobs in the construction sector. More details are available in the White House fact sheet on the two-year anniversary of the IIJA.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T01:01:09Z"]], "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/deluzio-celebrates-one-billion-investment-pennsylvanias-17th-district"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.6284477896988392, "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"}
