AI Summary
This bill, the Targeting Resources to Communities in Need Act of 2022, aims to increase the share of federal investments targeted towards areas of persistent poverty and other high-poverty areas. The bill requires the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to implement guidance to federal agencies on increasing investments in these areas, including setting a minimum goal that the amount of funds targeted be greater than the population share of these areas. The bill also requires the OMB to report annually to Congress on the programs that increased funding to these areas and the economic impacts. Additionally, the Census Bureau is required to publish and update a list of areas of persistent poverty. The bill authorizes $5 million in funding for the OMB to carry out these provisions.
