The legislation will now be sent to the President to be signed into law. Today, the House and Senate passed omnibus appropriations legislation to fund the federal government for fiscal year 2023. As part of the omnibus appropriations legislation, Rep. Kaptur secured $39 million in federal funding to support 15 community-led projects across Ohio’s 9th Congressional District. “Through the collaborative work of Republicans and Democrats, Congress is responsibly delivering critical investments in the services and programs people depend on,” said Rep. Kaptur. “We’re investing in education, infrastructure, and energy; improving healthcare and housing; expanding care for veterans and pay for servicemembers; and helping create good-paying jobs for hardworking Americans. We’re also serving as a reliable federal partner by securing $39 million for an array of community-led projects that will lower costs, revitalize neighborhoods, equip police officers and first responders with the latest tools, and prepare students and workers for in-demand careers of the future. As we prepare for a new Congress in the new year, I look forward to working in a bipartisan manner to continue building progress in Northwest Ohio and across America.” Rep.
