Rep. Schrier: “Through Community Project Funding, I’m able to go to bat for my constituents and bring federal dollars back home to the 8th District”
Rep. Kim Schrier is continuing to deliver for her community, this time securing more than $12.8 million in federal funding for an array of local infrastructure and community projects.
Schriers’ work will fund airport safety technology, firefighters, water treatment plants, and other projects throughout Washington’s 8th Congressional District.
In addition, Schrier worked with Senators Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray to secure $19 million for water and land conservation projects in the state — much of which is heading to the 8th district.
DCCC Spokesperson Dan Gottlieb:
“While Republicans waste time carrying out demands from their far-right party leaders, Kim Schrier shows up day after day to deliver tangible results back home. That’s why her neighbors will re-elect Schrier once again in November.”
