Congresswoman DeGette's FY24 Community Project Funding Requests
Congresswoman Diana DeGette has submitted funding requests for important projects in Colorado's 1st Congressional District to the House Appropriations Committee subcommittee on Transportation, Housing and Urban Development.
Under guidelines issued by the Appropriations Committee, Congresswoman DeGette may request funding for up to 15 projects in her community for fiscal year 2024 – although the requests may not be approved. Projects are restricted to a limited number of federal funding streams, and only state and local governments and eligible non-profit entities are permitted to receive funding. Additional information on the reforms governing Community Project Funding is available here.
In compliance with House Rules and Committee requirements, Congresswoman DeGette has certified that she, her spouse, and her immediate family have no financial interest in any of the projects she has requested.
