Alaskans,
Building robust and reliable infrastructure for Alaska's future is one of my highest priorities. As Congress drafted the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, commonly called the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, I worked hard to ensure Alaska was front and center in negotiations. The Alaska Delegation was united in the bill's passage, and in the short time since the bill was signed into law, our state has already received over $1 billion in infrastructure funding. These investments are just the beginning; Alaska stands to secure over $5 billion in funding.
You deserve a voice in this process, and I want to hear your ideas. This week, I launched the Alaskan Infrastructure Roundtable, a fully-online platform allowing Alaskans to have a voice in the rollout of funding from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act's grant programs.
What projects would you like to see funded through grants created by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law? I encourage you to send in your ideas by participating – and get your friends and family involved as well! This initiative will share your infrastructure priorities directly with my office and me, and I look forward to hearing from you.

As always, should you have any questions or concerns about legislation before Congress, do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Don Young
Congressman for All Alaska
