As a Member of Congress, I have delivered more than $28 million in critical community project funding for Northwest Georgia. These investments strengthen our infrastructure, improve public safety, and support long-term growth.
One of the most significant achievements is the Richard B. Russell Airport Expansion Project, which secured over $3.8 million for a new taxiway to accommodate increased aviation needs and future economic development.
We were able to secure more than $1.2 million for the Lookout Mountain Cloudland Fire and Emergency Center, a vital public safety facility along Highway 157 designed to reduce emergency response times in our community.
We also worked to designate the federal building and United States Courthouse in Rome as the Harold L. Murphy Federal Building and United States Courthouse, a tribute to Judge Harold Murphy, who dedicated his life to serving the American people.
