Investing in our infrastructure is how we keep our economy moving. Billions of dollars of freight and goods move through our region, as do hundreds of thousands of workers. They all depend on safe roads, reliable bridges, and accessible public transit.
In the last year, I’ve secured funding for fifteen projects, totaling more than $21.5 million invested in the 1st Congressional District. These include over $3.1 million for the Snohomish Public Safety & City Services Campus, benefiting local first responders and emergency preparedness teams, $4.1 million for the 156th Street NE Railroad Overcrossing in Marysville, and $2 million for the Swift Green Line Extension Southern Terminal Facility, helping bring more bus rapid transit to downtown Bothell and UW Bothell/Cascadia College by expanding the line that already serves Everett and Paine Field.
I will always work to ensure labor protections remain mandatory for all federal investments and that local communities have the right to provide input during permitting processes to ensure that precious tax dollars are going towards services and projects that truly meet the needs of the community.
