El Senador Merkley luch\u00f3 para incluir la financiaci\u00f3n cr\u00edtica en el proyecto de ley de Asignaciones de Energ\u00eda y Agua despu\u00e9s de que fuera recortado del presupuesto del Presidente.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\">&quot;Las comunidades costeras de Oregon dependen de sus puertos locales y a lo largo de los a\u00f1os hemos visto nuestras inversiones en infraestructura debilitarse hasta el punto en que nuestros puertos rurales est\u00e1n al borde del colapso&quot;, dijo Merkley. \u201cNo podemos seguir defraudando nuestro futuro al subfinanciar gravemente nuestra infraestructura h\u00eddrica. Hoy hemos dado un paso adelante para poner fin a este ciclo al reservar $50 millones para puertos peque\u00f1os y remotos. El proyecto de ley que fue aprobado hoy por el comit\u00e9 ayudar\u00e1 a generar empleos costeros y a mantener nuestros peque\u00f1os puertos en funcionamiento\u201d. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\">El Senador Merkley ha luchado constantemente en el Senado para fortalecer los puertos peque\u00f1os de Oreg\u00f3n y garantizar que los puertos peque\u00f1os de Estados Unidos reciban la parte justa de la financiaci\u00f3n. Para las peque\u00f1as comunidades costeras de Oreg\u00f3n, el acceso a financiaci\u00f3n para el dragado es crucial para la econom\u00eda. El a\u00f1o pasado, Merkley obtuvo $42,5 millones en financiaci\u00f3n dedicada a puertos peque\u00f1os. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Merkley es el primer senador de Oreg\u00f3n en formar parte del poderoso Comit\u00e9 de Asignaciones del Senado desde su mentor Mark Hatfield. Ha prometido utilizar su puesto en el Comit\u00e9 de Asignaciones para luchar por las prioridades de Oreg\u00f3n y las familias de clase media.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WASHINGTON, DC &ndash; Oregon&rsquo;s Senator Jeff Merkley announced today that the Senate Appropriations Committee passed a bill including $50 million for small, remote ports and $135 million for deep draft ports.
