Bill Introduced Will Provide Additional Corridor H Funding

Congressman Alex X. Mooney (WV-02) introduced H.R. 4896, Advancing Infrastructure Development in Appalachia Act or the AID in Appalachia Act. Senator Shelley Moore Capito introduced the companion Senate bill S. 2271 on July 25, 2019.

“Finishing the final stretch of Corridor H is a top priority and I am optimistic that this innovative and bipartisan approach will provide the necessary funding to get it built. This bill is a real win-win situation for West Virginia and other states that no longer have a use for their Appalachian highway funding but whom have other transportation infrastructure needs.
