Congresswoman Nikki Budzinski Meets with Local Leaders to Discuss Project Funding
G RANITE CITY - Congresswoman Nikki Budzinski stopped at Granite City for a roundtable discussion with local leaders about funding for local projects. On Tuesday, April 15, 2025, Budzinski and leaders from local communities met at America’s Central Port in Granite City to discuss the Continuing Resolution recently passed by Congressional Republicans. This resolution did not include funding for 15 projects in the 13th District, which Budzinski represents. “We had a number of projects that, had we reached a full and complete federal budget in this last fiscal year, we would have been able to award these well-deserving communities with this commitment,” Budzinski explained. “These are projects that had already gone through the appropriations process and had been approved, but we just failed to reach, under Republican leadership, a complete federal budget. So this can has continued to be kicked down the road, quite frankly, for the last several years.”
