WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 6938, the FY26 Energy and Water; Commerce, Justice, Science; and Interior and Environment conference package, negotiated on a bipartisan, bicameral basis. This package includes funding for a project in the city of Guntersville in Marshall County, which Congressman Aderholt had directly requested.
The project receiving funds is an expansion of the sanitary sewer into the Warrenton area of Guntersville for $2,174,898. This growing area, with new subdivisions, is currently not connected to the city sewer system and relies on septic tanks. The conversion of septic tanks and field lines to grinder pumps and low-pressure force mains will reduce the potential for biological contaminants to Lake Guntersville.
Community Project Funding returns tax dollars directly to local communities, ensuring federal spending addresses local needs and represents constituents.
Appropriators have worked hard negotiating and finalizing bills. This Appropriations package keeps the committee on track to complete all 12 FY26 Appropriations bills.
