Schumer scores $7B for pet project in mega-grant from Biden's infrastructure law
Fox News
The grant announced by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is the largest-ever sum awarded to a mass transit project.
It is a big win for Schumer, Biden’s most powerful ally in Congress, as well as lawmakers on both sides of the Hudson River who have been pushing for the project for a decade. Elizabeth Elkind is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital.
"BIG: I'm thrilled to announce the new Gateway tunnel will receive $6.88 BILLION thanks to our infrastructure law! The largest grant ever from [the Federal Transit Administration's] Capital Investment Grants Program," Schumer wrote on Twitter.
