Aguilar's office said he secured $17,633,864 for 20 Inland Empire projects in FY2027 appropriations bills passed by the House Appropriations Committee, including stormwater, roadway, airport drainage, water, wastewater, rail reliability and street lighting projects. The release also states the funding still awaited full House consideration and Senate negotiations.
Assessments
The promise was to keep working in Congress to deliver federal infrastructure investments for Inland Empire quality-of-life projects. The evidence shows multiple same-term federal investments Aguilar secured, including $2 million for the Highland-Redlands Regional Connector, $1 million for Omnitrans electric buses and charging infrastructure, and $2.5 million toward a completed Little Third Street improvement project with roads, sidewalks, lighting, storm drains, curb ramps, and bike lanes. Pending FY2027 committee-approved appropriations add evidence of continued work, but the completed and announced funded projects are enough for full delivery.
Official House office releases show Aguilar directly securing federal community project funding for Inland Empire transportation and infrastructure projects during his current term, including $2 million for the Highland-Redlands Regional Connector and $1 million for Omnitrans buses and charging infrastructure. That is direct candidate credit for delivering the promised federal infrastructure investments in the Inland Empire.
