U.S. Representative Mike Quigley (IL-05), a member of the House Committee on Appropriations and Chair of the Financial Services and General Government Subcommittee, announced that he has secured more than $16.5 million in Community Project Funding in the Fiscal Year 2023 appropriations government funding package, which has now passed the House and Senate. The bill is headed to the President’s desk for signature. This success builds on the ten projects Quigley secured funding for in the FY22 funding package, meaning he has now brought home more than $26.8 million dollars for local projects.

“I am proud to have secured more than $16.5 in Community Project Funding that I know meets long overdue community needs in Illinois’s 5th District,” said Quigley. “This funding will not only impact the organizations directly involved but will have a ripple effect on everyone living in the 5th district. It will improve our schools and learning centers, help protect our law enforcement, upgrade our parks and trails, and expand access to physical and mental health services. I look forward to seeing this funding delivered and continuing to learn how I can help make our community a better place to live for all.”
