Introduced Session

This resolution supports the resolve and efforts of the National Black Caucus of State Legislators to: 1) ensure 40 percent of federal infrastructure investments are made in communities of color and other disadvantaged communities; 2) establish, through legislation, oversight committees to interact with federal agencies; and 3) otherwise work to accomplish the goals of President Biden's Justice40 Initiative so that the disadvantaged and underserved constituents of the legislators in the National Black Caucus of State Legislators receive the maximum economic, environmental, and infrastructure investment benefits from federal funding initiatives. The National Black Caucus of State Legislators issued Resolution ETE-23-34, in which the caucus resolved to establish, through legislation, oversight committees to interact with federal agencies to further President Biden's Justice40 Initiative and coordinate with local and State agencies to assure maximum benefits are received by the constituents of the legislators in the National Black Caucus of State Legislators.
