Specific grant allocations are below: Town of Federalsburg (police department): $34,500 Wicomico County Free Library: $50,000 Easton Day Care Center: $18,200 Rep. Andy Harris made the following statement: "As a member of the Agriculture Subcommittee of the Committee on Appropriations, I applaud the award of these grants to the Eastern Shore. I support our local law enforcement, and I strongly believe, especially during this pandemic, that providing assistance to our local schools and the parents of our children is critical. My thanks to Secretary Perdue and those in the Rural Development office for their work on this!"	1	2026-03-30T01:40:41Z	2026-06-28T00:34:36Z
