Troy's COVID Relief Plan - Troy Carter for Congress

Carter's FY27 appropriations page says he can submit funding priority recommendations to the House Appropriations Committee, including requests for the Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education subcommittee, and explicitly warns that 'Submitting a request for funding does not guarantee that funding will be appropriated.'

He is actively seeking education-related appropriations, but the official page makes clear that the request process does not itself deliver funding.

The page lists a $5,000,000 request for Engaged Learning Strategies' 'School-within-a-School' project, described as support for re-engaging at-risk and disengaged middle school students through a STEM-based curriculum.

This is a concrete school-targeted funding request, but it is still a request rather than enacted funding.

The enacted American Rescue Plan appropriated $122,774,800,000 for the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund, required state subgrants to local educational agencies, allowed school facility repairs, HVAC/air-quality projects, sanitation, health protocols, and required local plans for safe return to in-person instruction.

The core federal school-reopening funding was enacted in March 2021, but this proves the policy existed nationally, not that Carter delivered it as a member of Congress.

House Roll Call 72 shows H.R. 1319, the American Rescue Plan Act, passed on March 10, 2021 by 220-211. The roll call occurred before Troy Carter was sworn into the House, and the vote list does not include Carter.

The main enacted school-reopening funding passed before Carter’s federal service, so it cannot be credited as Carter delivering the promise in office.

House Roll Call 65 shows H.R. 2471 passed 361-69 on March 9, 2022. The vote list records Carter (LA), Democratic, Louisiana, voting Yea.

Carter voted for a same-term appropriations package that included federal education spending, but this is general appropriations evidence rather than a specific school-reopening funding delivery.

Carter’s office states he can submit federal program and funding priority recommendations and that submitting a request for funding does not guarantee that funding will be appropriated.

The official page supports effort through appropriations requests but also shows requests are not enacted funding.

FY2026 Projects Requested includes $5,000,000 for BioDistrict New Orleans to renovate space for the new Xavier School of Medicine, including classrooms, an auditorium/conference facility, and teaching equipment.

This is a concrete later-term education-related funding request, but it is for a medical school facility and is not shown as enacted or tied to reopening safely.

FY2026 Projects Requested includes $5,000,000 for Engaged Learning Strategies for a School-within-a-School project to re-engage at-risk and disengaged middle school students through STEM-based curriculum.

This is a concrete school-targeted later-term request, but the record shows a request rather than appropriated reopening-safety funding.
