John Lewis is notified that organizations within the 5th Congressional District have been selected to receive a variety of federal grants.  This federal grants announcement will advise press and constituents of these notifications.  This announcement details about $115,083,444 in federal grants coming to the 5th Congressional District. What is the funding process for federal grants? There are two basic ways the federal government awards funds, through mandatory funding or discretionary funding.  Members of Congress vote on “authorizing” legislation that funds the mandatory commitments of the federal government for programs like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, unemployment insurance and SNAP.  Also every year, levels of discretionary funding are determined during the Congressional appropriations process.  Rep. Lewis and all other members of Congress work to ensure that federal programs which provide key services within their districts are funded at levels requested by local government authorities and constituents they represent.    The federal grants announced by this release fall mainly in the discretionary category.  The money appropriated by Congress is sent to the federal agencies, such as the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) or of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), which then disburse it directly to the states and local governments.  Sometimes federal agencies issue requests for proposals which place states, cities, and local organizations in competition with others around the country for the opportunity to gain federal support for a local project.  This is where the efficacy of city and state organizations are tested to determine whether they can compete effectively to receive those funds. Rep. Lewis often meets with and advises city, state or local agencies to help them strategize effective methods of engaging the federal agencies throughout the grant process. Pell Grants, Byrne Justice Assistance, veterans’ services, LIHEAP home heating support, early education, COPS, YouthBuild, Jobs Corps, the CDC, minority health programs, TIGER, critical disease research initiatives, tenant and fair housing assistance all stem from Congressional discretionary funding.  Recent successful discretionary grant efforts from the 5th Congressional District of Georgia include the Atlanta Streetcar, the Multimodal Passenger Terminal, the Atlanta BeltLine, and the UTC.  Through his District Office, Rep. Lewis offers grants assistance and workshops to explain the federal grants process.  Please call 404-659-0116 if you are interested in participating in one of these workshops.  Following is the list of the most recently granted federal funds to the 5th Congressional District. If you are seeking more information about any one of these federal grants, please consult the granting information for more details on their selection process. Grants over $500,000 are highlighted. This is to inform you that the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, the National Science Foundation, National Institute of Standards and Technology, U.S. Department of Transportation, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Department of Transportation, the Department of Energy, and the U.S. Economic Development Administration will be announcing the following grant award(s) to recipient(s) within your Congressional district and state.    Grant Notifications   U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) Grant Recipient: Task Force for Global Health Inc.

This award will be a multi-year award (5 years) cover the period October 1, 2016 - September 30, 2021. NIST Awards Funding to Support Small and Medium-Sized Manufacturers For Immediate Release: Aug. 31, 2016 The U.S. Commerce Department’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) will award more than $36 million in annual funding to organizations in 11 states and Puerto Rico, as part of its efforts to enhance the competitiveness of U.S. manufacturers. The five-year funding agreements will support Hollings Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) centers, which provide a wide range of services to small and medium-sized manufacturers in every state and Puerto Rico. The awards will go to organizations in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Georgia, Louisiana, Missouri, Montana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, Utah and Vermont and provide funding for the first year of the five-year agreements. Continued funding is subject to the availability of annual appropriations and successful annual reviews. One remaining award from this federal funding opportunity, announced in January 2016, is still in process. The following organizations will sign cooperative agreements to operate centers in their states: • Alabama Technology Network (Montgomery) - $1,780,800 • Arkansas Economic Development Commission (Little Rock) - $971,218 MEP center name: Arkansas Economic Development Commission Manufacturing Solutions • California Manufacturing Technology Consulting (Torrance) - $14,046,449 • Georgia Tech Research Corporation (Atlanta) - $2,693,482 MEP center name: Georgia Manufacturing Extension Partnership • Louisiana Community and Technical College System (Baton Rouge) - $1,197,546 MEP center name: MEPoL • Missouri IncuTech Foundation (Rolla) - $2,207,873 MEP center name: Missouri Enterprise • Montana State University (Bozeman) - $512,000 MEP center name: Montana Manufacturing Extension Center • State of Ohio, Development Services Agency (Columbus) - $5,246,822 MEP center name: Ohio Manufacturing Extension Partnership • Pennsylvania IRC Network Foundation (Williamsport) - $5,280,576 MEP center name: Pennsylvania Manufacturing Extension Partnership • Puerto Rico Manufacturing Extension, Inc. (San Juan) - $643,133 MEP center name: PRIMEX • University of Utah (Salt Lake City) - $1,147,573 MEP center name: University of Utah Manufacturing Extension Partnership • Vermont State Colleges (Randolph Center) - $600,000 MEP center name: Vermont Manufacturing Extension Center Proposals were reviewed by government and independent experts and evaluated against a number of criteria, including demonstration of a thorough understanding of market needs and how proposed service offerings would meet those needs. The reviewers also looked at the proposed business models, performance measurements and metrics, partnership potential, staff qualifications and program management, as well as financial and nonfederal cost-share plans. The new agreement reduces the centers’ cost-share burden by reducing the amount of required matching funds from nonfederal sources. For every dollar of federal investment, MEP clients generate nearly $17 in new sales, which translates into $2.3 billion in new sales annually. And for every $1,900 of federal investment, MEP creates or retains one U.S. manufacturing job. Since 1988, MEP has worked with more than 86,000 manufacturers, leading to $96.4 billion in sales and $15.7 billion in cost savings, and it has helped create nearly 800,000 jobs. Read about some of MEP’s successes on its website.
