Funded by the Fiscal Year 2024 government funding bill, this federal grant is distributed through the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Economic Development Administration (EDA). Senator McConnell, a senior member of the Senate Appropriations Committee, contacted the EDA in support of LEAD’s competitive grant application and advocated for EDA funding during the annual appropriations process. "Impactful organizations like LEAD – and their work to drive industry into the Commonwealth – form an integral part of Western Kentucky’s growing economy. I was proud to work with LEAD to help bring home today’s funding which will lay the groundwork for new jobs and economic opportunity in Logan County. I look forward to seeing these funds go to good use and I'll continue to do what I can to ensure Western Kentucky is a place full of growth and opportunity,” said Senator McConnell. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:55:29Z |
