NADO is pleased to announce that Senator Jeff Merkley (D-OR) along with three of his colleagues sent a letter to the Senate Appropriations Committee asking their support for EDA’s Public Works program. Specifically, the letter requests the committee to fund the Public Works program at $129 million for FY2014. The Administration has proposed cutting the Public Works program to $40.5 million for next year, which would represent a 49% cut from last year’s funding level. Click here to view the full letter.
