Casar's office said it secured nearly $3 million for affordable housing projects in San Antonio through the Fiscal Year 2024 congressional budget process, and the release quotes him saying the investment will help working Texans continue to live and thrive on the Westside.

He delivered federal funding for affordable housing, a direct economic-benefit action for working families in his district.

Casar announced $1,000,000 in federal funds for water main improvements in Eastern Travis County, saying that bringing basic water service to families is part of his commitment to make Congress work for working people.

He secured infrastructure funding that directly improves living conditions for working-class residents, but it is a local project rather than broad economic justice policy.

OSHA published a proposed rule on August 30, 2024, for heat injury and illness prevention in outdoor and indoor work settings, creating the first federal proposal of its kind during Casar's term.

This is relevant because Casar publicly claimed credit for pushing the federal heat-rule effort; the official rulemaking shows concrete movement, though only at proposal stage in the period reviewed.
