Mr. MRVAN. Madam Speaker, I rise today to express my profound support for the work of the House Appropriations Committee and highlight the inclusion of the Fiscal Year 2023 Community Project Funding requests for Indiana's First Congressional District.

I am grateful for the ability to collaborate with local units of government, nonprofit organizations, and institutions of higher education to effectively advocate in a transparent fashion for their eligible projects.

Notably, the House-approved legislation includes funding for vital economic and transportation assets in Northwest Indiana, including the Gary/Chicago International Airport, the Burns Waterway Small Boat Harbor in Portage, and shoreline restoration efforts for Mount Baldy within the Indiana Dunes National Park.

I look forward to continuing to work with all my colleagues to complete our constitutional work to fund government and advance the needs of our districts.
