Aderholt | A000055 | aderholt.house.gov | aderholt | https://aderholt.house.gov/media-center/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Robert Aderholt (AL-04) secured $35 million for Alabama hospitals as a part of the FY27 Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act. As Chairman of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, Congressman Aderholt directed Community Project Funding to be returned to the Labor-HHS bill this year. “I am proud of the effort to bring back this source of support for hospitals, health centers, and other safety net providers. This bill funds nearly 500 projects for over two hundred members. These designated funds will be deeply impactful for communities across the country.” Out of the $32 million secured for Alabama hospitals and health centers, $22.1 million will be directed to rural hospitals in Alabama’s Fourth District. “I have long believed that rural communities should have the same access to top-notch healthcare centers and hospitals as larger cities, and these investments are a real step toward that goal. Community-based care is a first step in having better long-term health outcomes.” The FY27 Labor-HHS bill also includes $100 million for the Rural Hospital Provider Assistance Program to support rural hospitals at the low end of the wage index and ensure sustainable access to quality health care providers for these rural communities. “This initiative reflects a deliberate commitment to ensuring our rural hospitals have the resources they need to survive and serve their communities. Through this program, eligible hospitals will receive direct financial assistance to help maintain and strengthen essential healthcare services.” The FY27 Labor-HHS Appropriations Act now moves to the House Floor for consideration. | 1 | 2026-06-27T21:44:12Z | 2026-06-27T22:11:26Z |
