"Federal Grants Boost American Ports with Over $653 Million Investment"
The Biden-Harris Administration has announced over $653 million in funding for 41 port improvement projects across the United States. These investments aim to strengthen American supply chains by increasing capacity and efficiency at coastal seaports, Great Lakes ports, and inland river ports. The funding will improve the safety, reliability, and resilience of ports, create job opportunities, and speed up the movement of goods. These investments are part of the largest dedicated funding for ports and waterways in history, totaling nearly $17 billion through the President's Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.
