(PITTSBURGH, PA) – Today, Representative Conor Lamb (PA-17) announced the Community Project Funding (CPF) requests that he submitted for the Fiscal Year 2023 (FY23) Appropriations process.  Under guidelines issued by the House Committee on Appropriations, each Representative may request funding for up to 15 projects in their community.

“It is important to me that my constituents have a voice in how their tax dollars are spent.  These projects are a great investment because they were planned and led at the local level, not in Washington, and if we can secure this funding it helps communities provide the basics: safe transportation and water systems, better education and training, and more resources for public safety,” said Lamb.

The 15 projects, totaling nearly $16 million in funding for PA-17, are:

  • Beaver County District Attorney Ten-County SW-PA Rapid DNA Law Enforcement Initiative: $576,880
  • Northern Regional Police Department Police K9 Program: $175,000

Community Project Funding requests are restricted to a limited number of federal funding streams, and only state and local governments and eligible non-profit entities are permitted to apply and receive funding.  For-profit entities are strictly prohibited.  In compliance with House Rules and Committee requirements, Congressman Lamb has certified that he, his spouse, and his immediate family have no financial interest in any of the projects.
