This EDA grant will be matched with $966,000\r\nin local funds and is expected to create 39 jobs, save 474 jobs, and generate\r\n$4.25 million in private investment. Investing in West Virginia's\r\ninfrastructure is vital to boosting our regional economies and workforce, and I\r\nam pleased the EDA is yet again investing in our state. This funding will\r\nprovide Kenova with the needed assistance to improve their water\r\ninfrastructure, creating jobs and supporting our communities. I look forward to\r\ncontinuing our strong relationship with the EDA to create economic development\r\nthrough investments across West Virginia, said Senator Manchin. EDA continues to be an essential partner for West Virginia as we work to grow our economy and create jobs,said Senator Capito. This funding will help ensure future development in Wayne County by making critical improvements to water infrastructure along the Tolsia Highway. As chairman of the Senate Environment and Public Works Subcommittee on Transportation and Infrastructure, I have fought to bring funding into West Virginia to improve our state's infrastructure. These investments support business growth, spur economic development, and improve the everyday lives of West Virginians. I am very pleased to secure this funding through the EDA and look forward to the positive change it will make in Wayne County.  \n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\n\t  \n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t \n\t\t\n\t\t\tPrint\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tEmail\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\tTweet\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t \n\t\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n    \n\t\n\t\n    \n    \n    \n    \t\n    \t\n\t    \t  \n\t\t    \n\t\t    \tNext Article\n\t\t    \n\t\t    \n\t\t    \tPrevious Article", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "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://www.manchin.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/manchin-capito-applaud-26-million-investment-for-water-infrastructure-improvements-in-kenova"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8998408447951078, "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"}
