“Since the first day I entered Congress, I have been a leading advocate for Make It In America policies that can help grow America’s manufacturing capacity. This wastewater collection system upgrade is exactly the type of project we need to create jobs and make our economy more resilient,” Congressman Garamendi said.
Garamendi added, “Yuba County has suffered from an unemployment rate higher than the state average, largely because it lacks sufficient infrastructure to build a thriving manufacturing sector. Thanks to this $1.8 million grant, we can reverse that trend and bring good jobs to the region. I’m enthusiastic for the many families whose lives will soon get a lot better thanks to this grant from the Economic Development Administration. Smart government is smart business.”
