“This funding is an investment in our state’s continued and future success,” Stabenow said. “We are helping to serve and protect our communities, ensuring continued access to high-quality health care, supporting innovation and technological development in our industries, all while creating new jobs. This bill also includes language recognizing the importance of the Great Lakes and the unique role they play in Michigan, the nation’s economy, and our environment. I look forward to the President signing this legislation that is so critical for Michigan families.”

“Communities across our great state will benefit from the funding provided in this legislation,” Levin said. “This bill addresses some of Michigan’s crucial needs such as protecting the Great Lakes from invasive species, improving our transportation infrastructure, enhancing our health care system, and supporting our educational institutions. These projects contribute positively to the quality of life in Michigan.”
