ATLANTA – Today, Congresswoman Nikema Williams (GA-05) opened the appropriations process for Fiscal Year 2024. Two types of requests are being accepted: Community Project Funding Requests and programmatic requests. All requests must be submitted to Congresswoman Williams’ office by close of business on Monday, March 20, 2023. 

Each Representative may request funding for up to 15 projects in their community for fiscal year 2024 – although only a handful may actually be funded—and projects are restricted to state and local governments and eligible non-profit entities.
