Occurrences
Evidence
The official U.S. House website for Rep. Sarah McBride lists Services > Project Funding Disclosures > Funding Requests FY26 and links that item to https://mcbride.house.gov/community-project-funding-fy26.
Public Law 119-74 appropriated FY2026 EPA State and Tribal Assistance Grants funds and states that specified STAG Drinking Water State Revolving Fund and Clean Water State Revolving Fund projects are in the table titled "Interior and Environment Incorporation of Community Project Funding Items/Congressionally Directed Spending Items" in the explanatory statement.
The Congressional Record text of H.R. 6938 says $715,364,627 of Drinking Water State Revolving Fund capitalization grants shall be for construction of drinking water, wastewater, and storm water infrastructure and for projects specified for STAG--Drinking Water State Revolving Fund and STAG--Clean Water State Revolving Fund in the Interior and Environment CPF/CDS table.
Assessments
The promise was to seek, not necessarily secure, $2,000,000 in federal Community Project Funding for Magnolia's 1928-era water storage tank. Rep. McBride's official FY2026 Community Project Funding disclosure page lists the Town of Magnolia Water Storage Tower request at $2,000,000 and describes replacing the 1928-era tank to improve fire protection, water pressure, and service reliability. That is the promised federal CPF request made during her current House term.
