John Lewis is notified that organizations within the 5th Congressional District have been selected to receive a variety of federal grants.\u00a0 This federal grants announcement will advise press and constituents of these notifications.\u00a0 This announcement details about $66,462,846 in federal grants coming to the 5th Congressional District.\nWhat is the funding process for federal grants?\nThere are two basic ways the federal government awards funds, through mandatory funding or discretionary funding.\u00a0 Members of Congress vote on \u201cauthorizing\u201d legislation that funds the mandatory commitments of the federal government for programs like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, unemployment insurance and SNAP.\u00a0 Also every year, levels of discretionary funding are determined during the Congressional appropriations process.\u00a0 Rep. Lewis and all other members of Congress work to ensure that federal programs which provide key services within their districts are funded at levels requested by local government authorities and constituents they represent.\u00a0 \u00a0\nThe federal grants announced by this release fall mainly in the discretionary category. \u00a0The money appropriated by Congress is sent to the federal agencies, such as the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) or of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), which then disburse it directly to the states and local governments.\u00a0 Sometimes federal agencies issue requests for proposals which place states, cities, and local organizations in competition with others around the country for the opportunity to gain federal support for a local project.\u00a0 This is where the efficacy of city and state organizations are tested to determine whether they can compete effectively to receive those funds. Rep. Lewis often meets with and advises city, state or local agencies to help them strategize effective methods of engaging the federal agencies throughout the grant process.\nPell Grants, Byrne Justice Assistance, veterans\u2019 services, LIHEAP home heating support, early education, COPS, YouthBuild, Jobs Corps, the CDC, minority health programs, TIGER, critical disease research initiatives, tenant and fair housing assistance all stem from Congressional discretionary funding.\u00a0 Recent successful discretionary grant efforts from the 5th Congressional District of Georgia include the Atlanta Streetcar, the Multimodal Passenger Terminal, the Atlanta BeltLine, and the UTC.\u00a0 Through his District Office, Rep. Lewis offers grants assistance and workshops to explain the federal grants process.\u00a0 Please call 404-659-0116 if you are interested in participating in one of these workshops.\u00a0\nFollowing is the list of the most recently granted federal funds to the 5th Congressional District. If you are seeking more information about any one of these federal grants, please consult the granting information for more details on their selection process. Grants over $500,000 are highlighted.\nThis is to inform you that the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, the National Science Foundation, National Institute of Standards and Technology, U.S. Department of Transportation, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, National Endowment for the Arts, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the Department of Education
