Valadao (CA-22) joined Delano Public Works Director Roman Dowling and other city officials to tour an existing water treatment plant and preview the city\u2019s plans for the Well 42 Project. Congressman Valadao worked with city officials to help them secure a $6 million federal grant to fund the project through the Fiscal Year 2024 Consolidated Appropriations Act.\n\n\u201cEnsuring Central Valley communities have access to clean, reliable drinking water is my top priority in Congress,\u201d said Congressman Valadao. \u201cThis new facility will not only provide clean water for Delano families, but it will also help relieve some of the pressure on housing prices since new homes can\u2019t be built in the area without a stable water supply. I was proud to play a small role in helping the city secure these funds and look forward to working with them on future projects to improve the community.\u201d\n\nBackground:\n\nThe funding was secured through a Community Project Funding request submitted by Rep. Valadao in the FY24 Transportation, Housing, and Urban Development Appropriations bill. Community Project Funding is a tool used by members of Congress to help direct available federal grant money to important projects in their community. Rep. Valadao\u2019s Community Project Funding requests are publicly available on his website here.\n\nClick here for an interactive map of the Community Project Funding requests Rep. Valadao secured for the 22nd Congressional District in Fiscal Year 2024.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T21:36:13Z"]], "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://valadao.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=1430"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.9089438244700432, "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"}
