Congresswoman Laurel Lee praised the passage of the Fiscal Year 2026 Commerce, Justice, Science; Energy and Water Development; and Interior and Environment Appropriations bills through the House, which include targeted Community Project Funding priorities to strengthen public safety, protect access to clean drinking water, and advance medical research and workforce development across Florida’s 15th Congressional District.

Assessments
The promise was to support federal funding for community projects in Florida's 15th District through appropriations requests. The strongest evidence shows Laurel Lee did exactly that while in office: her official House website states she submitted FY2026 community project funding requests for FL-15 to the House Appropriations Committee, and House committee guidance confirms these posted requests are the formal Community Project Funding appropriations-request process. Additional evidence indicates House-passed FY2026 appropriations bills included targeted FL-15 community project funding priorities she touted. Because the promise was to support funding through making appropriations requests—not necessarily to secure final enactment of every request—the documented submission and advancement of those requests satisfies the commitment.
