Federal legislator outreach

Bring federal IIJA, FTA, and Reconnecting Communities money home through Nevada's congressional delegation.


Why this project

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and FTA’s Capital Investment Grants program are still distributing significant funding for transit projects through 2030. Capturing that money for the Valley requires Nevada’s congressional delegation to advocate for our applications, write supporting letters, and (when a project is shovel-ready) help get it across the line.
