Amodei | A000369 | amodei.house.gov | amodei | https://amodei.house.gov/news-releases | scraper | Washington, D.C. – Today, the House of Representatives took another meaningful step toward restoring regular order by advancing the bipartisan, conferenced Commerce, Justice, Science; Energy and Water Development; and Interior and Environment Appropriations Act, 2026. Rep. Amodei was able to secure $17.8 million for 10 locally driven projects across Northern Nevada in this minibus. “This bipartisan, bicameral funding package reflects the diligent work of Appropriators to keep progress moving forward and prevent chaos from derailing our responsibilities. With a few bills still to finalize, the passage of three additional Fiscal Year 2026 appropriations bills sets the year off on strong footing and moves us closer to our goal of restoring regular order. “This package focuses on priorities that matter to Americans nationwide. It invests in public safety, supports access to affordable and reliable energy, strengthens deterrence against foreign adversaries, ensures National Parks remain open and accessible, responsibly stewards taxpayer dollars, fully funds programs families and communities rely on, and much more. “Also included is funding for 10 essential projects across Northern Nevada. I’m grateful to the subcommittee chairs for their thoughtful consideration and for recognizing the value these investments will bring to improve the lives of Nevadans in CD-2.” FY26 Community Project Funding Awardees Included in Interior and Environment: Recipient: Reno-Sparks Indian Colony Amount: $2,224,000 Project Name: Hungry Valley Water Pipeline Installation Recipient: Gardnerville Ranchos General Improvement District Amount: $2,000,000 Project Name: Gardnerville Ranchos South District Pipeline Replacement Recipient: City of Fernley Amount: $2,000,000 Project Name: Fernley Water Treatment Plant Recipient: City of Elko Amount: $2,000,000 Project Name: City of Elko Water Storage Tank Recipient: Lyon County Amount: $1,938,000 Project Name: Dayton Sewer Main and Manhole Rehabilitation Project Recipient: City of West Wendover Amount: $2,000,000 Project Name: Water Transmission System PCCP Pipeline Replacement Project TOTAL INTERIOR PROJECT FUNDING: $12,162,000 Included Commerce, Justice, Science: Recipient: City of Reno Amount: $1,200,000 Project Name: Reno Police Department’s Real Time Information Center Recipient: Douglas County Amount: $400,000 Project Name: Douglas County Sheriff’s Office Mobile Command Center Recipient: City of Fallon Amount: $1,000,000 Project Name: Fallon Police Department Dispatch and Emergency Response Communication Network and Records Management System Recipient: Washoe County Amount: $3,000,000 Project Name: Northern Nevada Mobile Intelligence Response Vehicle TOTAL CJS PROJECT FUNDING: $5,600,000 Background: By moving these next three bills forward, this measure keeps the Committee on track to complete all 12 FY26 appropriations bills. Gone are the days of bloated, backroom omnibuses. Thanks to Republican governance, funding decisions will move through a deliberate, member-driven process that emphasizes transparency, accountability, and timely consideration. Differences between the House and Senate versions of the Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies; Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies; and Interior, Environment and Related Agencies appropriations bills were reconciled through bipartisan, bicameral negotiations led by House and Senate appropriators. The package contains no poison pills. This package is part of an agreement that keeps total FY26 spending below the level projected under the current continuing resolution, delivering real savings for American taxpayers. | 1 | 2026-06-06T06:16:30Z | 2026-06-06T06:17:47Z |
