The funding comes from the Water Infrastructure Improvements for the Nation (WIIN) Act.\n\n\u201cWe need to do everything we can to ensure all Michiganders have access to safe drinking water,\u201d said Senator Peters. \u201cI\u2019m proud to have supported this bipartisan legislation to provide this much-needed funding, and I will continue to work closely with the Biden Administration to prioritize replacing lead pipes across our state.\u201d\n\n\u201cMichigan knows all too well the dangers of lead pipes,\u201d said Senator Stabenow. \u201cThis critical investment will help remove and replace lead pipes so that families don\u2019t have to question whether their water is safe to drink.\u201d\n\nThe Detroit Water and Sewerage Department will use this $5 million grant to replace lead service lines at the homes of the city\u2019s most vulnerable residents, including seniors, persons with disabilities and/or children in the home. Based on current material and labor costs, the grant will provide for the replacement of about 500 lead service lines.\n\nMore information about these grants can be found here.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T03:20:33Z"]], "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.peters.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/peters-stabenow-applaud-5-million-in-federal-funding-to-replace-lead-pipes-in-detroit"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.8036218825727701, "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"}
