REP Lieu Champions Community Growth: Secures Over $11 Million for Local Projects

 

WASHINGTON –  Rep. Ted W. Lieu (D-Los Angeles County) March 13 announced that he secured over $11 million in federal funding for 14 local projects in California’s 36th Congressional District. The Fiscal Year 2024 appropriations bills were signed into law by President Biden March 9. The federal funding will support local efforts to improve infrastructure, protect the environment, reduce homelessness and more.  

Rep. Lieu championed funding for 14 projects that will directly benefit California’s 36th District residents. Local projects include: 

  • $1,000,000 for the Rolling Hills landslide mitigation project
  • $963,000 for the Hermosa Beach Real Time Crime Center
  • $200,000 for the Downtown Lomita stormwater project
  • $1,000,000 for the California Abilities Network or ICAN Individuals With Disabilities Workforce training center
  • 1,466,279 for the Redondo Beach Marina dock system replacement

House Democrats were successful in removing House Republican policies from these bills that attempted to make abortion illegal everywhere, slash efforts to fight climate change and threaten national security. Instead, these final bipartisan 2024 funding bills will help keep communities safe, fight inflation, and boost the economy. Taken together, the funding for California’s 36th District and the funding increases for government programs will continue to grow the local economy and support local communities.
