Rep. Stansbury Pushes for $144 Million for 20 Community Projects Across New Mexico April 1, 2026 Press Release
Push for federal funding for community projects across New Mexico in FY27.
Occurrences
I look forward to working with you to increase federal investments in New Mexico’s 1st Congressional District.
Congresswoman Melanie Stansbury (NM-01) announced her FY 2027 Community Project Funding Requests—totaling more than $144 million across 20 Projects to support critical investments across New Mexico’s 1st Congressional District.
Evidence
The office's FY27 appropriations page invites constituents and advocacy groups to submit community project funding requests and sets a March 6 submission deadline.
House Appropriations says its FY27 portal opened Feb. 25 for member programmatic, language, and community project funding requests.
Assessments
The available evidence shows Melanie Stansbury actively soliciting FY27 community project funding requests and the House appropriations process is open, which supports that she is pursuing the promise during her current term. However, there is no evidence that federal funding has actually been secured or delivered for community projects across New Mexico yet, so the promise cannot be marked fulfilled at this time.
