The People’s Budget: I Want to Hear From You

Dear Neighbor,

In December, President Biden signed into law an annual funding bill, which included millions in Community Project Funding for 15 projects across the Massachusetts 7th Congressional District. These projects will support investments to build a more just and equitable Massachusetts 7th Congressional District through trauma-informed healthcare, workforce development, affordable housing, equity in education, environmental justice, and more.

But make no mistake—our work is far from finished.

As I begin working with my partners in Congress to craft our annual budget for Fiscal Year 2024, I want to make sure we are centering the voices and lived experiences of everyone in the Massachusetts 7th Congressional District. That’s why I want to hear from you.

Budgets are a statement of our values, and by sharing your story, you can help ensure our budgets reflect the needs of everyone in community. I hope you’ll take a moment to complete the short survey below.

If you or your organization would like to learn more about Community Project Funding opportunities you can visit our website here or read our office’s Community Project Funding Resource Guide. To submit a Community Project Funding request for consideration, you can use this form. Our office’s deadline for all applications is Wednesday, March 15, 2023 at 6:00PM EST.

If you or your organization would like to advocate for a certain federal program through the general appropriations process, you can submit a formal request through this form. Our office’s deadline for general appropriations requests is Wednesday, March 15, 2023 at 6:00PM EST.

I’m grateful for your partnership and honored to stand alongside you as we develop bold policy and continue fighting for the relief our communities in the Massachusetts 7th need and deserve. As always, my team and I are ready to support you in any way we can, so please don’t hesitate to give us a call at 617-850-0040 if we can be of assistance.

In service and solidarity,

Ayanna Pressley

Member of Congress
