the Congresswoman is working to secure additional funds.
Work to secure additional funds for flood protection and storm resiliency projects.
Occurrences
Evidence
The FY2027 NY-07 Community Projects page lists 'Calvary Cemetery Stormwater Infrastructure, Western Queens' with a $10,000,000 request and says the project will provide investment in stormwater management infrastructure, with design and construction intended to infiltrate or store stormwater and improve drainage.
Assessments
Velazquez has taken a concrete same-term step by listing a district stormwater infrastructure project for federal community project funding, which is directly related to flood protection and storm resiliency. However, the cited evidence shows only a funding request and notes that submission does not guarantee appropriations. Because the additional funds have not yet been shown as enacted, awarded, or otherwise secured, the promise remains unresolved rather than delivered.
