Rep. Gregory Meeks (NY-5)

The deadline for submissions is April 15, 2022 at 5 pm

New York, NY. Congressman Gregory W. Meeks (NY-05) announced yesterday that his office is now accepting requests for Community Project Funding (CPF) for Fiscal Year 2023 (FY23). The deadline for submissions is April 15, 2022 at 5 pm. Late or incomplete requests may not be accepted or considered.

“In Southeast Queens, Nassau Country, and in the Rockaways, we are still re-building our economy as we overcome the COVID-19 pandemic. My office will be accepting and reviewing requests for projects through a transparent process that will provide adequate and necessary funding for projects and activities that have a direct impact on New York’s 5th Congressional District,” said Congressman Gregory W. Meeks.

Members of Congress are limited to 15 total Community Project Funding requests across all bills, so regardless of the number of requests that Congressman Meeks receives, only 15 requests will be submitted to the Appropriations Committee.

The CPF program is being implemented with accountability measures to ensure a responsible and transparent process. As required by House rules regarding transparency, Congressman Meeks will post the 15 projects submitted to the Committee on his website. All information submitted by a requesting organization should be considered public information.

Only eligible CPF requests that meet all the guidelines established by the Appropriations Committee will be accepted and considered. Visit the House Appropriations Committee website to review the guidelines and submit a request for Congressman Meeks’ office here
