          INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS IN FIRST DISTRICT OF INDIANA

  (Mr. MRVAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. MRVAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise to express my appreciation for another 
recent success for the First District of Indiana from the 
Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
  Just this week, the Department of Transportation shared that the 
cities of East Chicago, Gary, and Hammond received funding under the 
Safe Streets and Roads for All grant program to develop plans for 
infrastructure projects designed to reduce transportation-related 
fatalities and serious injuries.
  I am grateful for all the leaders and public servants in these cities 
putting in the work to successfully obtain and utilize this new Federal 
resource.
  As we proceed, I look forward to continuing to work with all local 
stakeholders and my colleagues to support and promote the safety of our 
transportation infrastructure so that all individuals and businesses 
can continue to thrive and attract new economic activity to our 
communities.
