"This legislation provides significant investments to improve our nation's airports, roads, bridges, and ports, as well as increasing the supply of safe, affordable housing for communities throughout the country. Despite a challenging budget year, the bill maintains existing rental assistance for more than 4.6 million households and continues to make meaningful investments aimed at tackling homelessness. I thank Ranking Member Hyde-Smith for her work in crafting this legislation, and as the Vice Chairman of the Appropriations Committee, I will continue to advocate for this funding as the appropriations process moves forward."
