2024 Community Project Funding

Congressman Hank Johnson’s (GA-04) secured more than $15 million in Community Project Funding for Georgia’s 4th District in the Fiscal Year 2024. 

This funding, included in the first of the appropriations government funding packages, responds directly to some of the most pressing needs in Georgia’s Fourth District – which is currently comprised of parts of DeKalb County, Newton County, and all of Rockdale County.

“Taking care of home first has always been how I approach representing our great district,” Rep. Johnson said. “The nearly $16 million in Community Project Funding in this bill will have a profound impact on Georgia’s 4th District. These investments grow our economy, making a real difference in the lives of so many in our community. I am proud to have fought for funding that will make our community healthier, safer, and stronger.”
