The Community Project Funding (CPF) process allows Members of Congress to direct spending to projects in their communities that are high priority and broadly supported. This ensures that the people’s federal representatives can target spending to where it is most needed, instead of leaving the decision entirely up to the federal bureaucracy.
For fiscal year 2026 (FY26), Members of the House of Representatives were permitted to submit a maximum of fifteen (15) projects to the House Appropriations Committee for consideration. All projects were vetted and those that are selected will be overseen to make sure that taxpayer dollars are spent properly.
In order to be funded, each project must be included in appropriations legislation that is approved by both houses of Congress and signed into law by the President.
