Congresswoman Claudia Tenney has announced the initiation of the Community Project Funding (CPF) process for Fiscal Year 2026. The deadline for submitting proposals is set for Thursday, April 24th, 2025.

The CPF process allows members of Congress to advocate for projects that benefit their districts, with an emphasis on transparency and local input. This approach is intended to prevent decision-making from being done solely by federal officials without local insights. Through the CPF program, local governments and non-profits have the opportunity to request federal funding for priority projects in New York's 24th District. Submitted projects undergo thorough vetting, with scrutiny applied to ensure they have substantial local backing.

Projects supported by Congresswoman Tenney's office must meet stringent eligibility requirements, as detailed in appropriations guidelines, and include plans for prompt fund use with accountability measures. Tenney's office ensures that awarded funds are managed responsibly and serve their intended purposes.

Local officials and non-profits with questions or plans to submit applications are advised to reach out via email to: AppropriationsRequestsNY24@mail.house.gov
