Indian-American Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal on June.3 announced her Community Project Funding (CPF) requests, which she will advocate to be included in the Fiscal Year 2025 (FY25) appropriations bills. These 15 projects have the potential to bring up to $56 million to the Seattle area.

“Delivering for the Seattle area is the most important part of my job, and I am so proud to be working to bring home this money for innovative and critical projects across our community,” said Jayapal in a statement.

“This funding will make our community safer – with both public safety funding and upgrades to aging transit infrastructure, more resilient to the climate crisis, and overall a better place to live. While Republicans in Congress continue to lead through chaos, I will be standing up for you, working to get this across the finish line,” she added.
