Schatz: Tribes Receive $72 Million In Federal Funding For Home Electrification Projects
Statement
Issues: Indigenous Peoples
“It’s unacceptable that so many Tribal and Alaska Native communities lack access to electricity and it’s why we fought to include $150 million in funding for home electrification in the Inflation Reduction Act. I’m glad to see the funding is starting to reach the communities that need it, and I look forward to seeing the second round of this critical funding go out in the coming months.”
