I want to thank Representative Hal Rogers, who helped establish the amler program in 2016. Since then, over $282 million has been awarded to projects across Kentucky. On Monday, the federal government announced that $29.5 million is coming to Kentucky this year [through the AMLER program]. to support our communities that have been impacted. This year, the opportunity is being extended to coal communities in Western Kentucky as well. For the very first time. (10:52–11:00)
