Increased Funding Access for Colonias: Population Limit Expansion

This act aims to ease access to funding for Colonias communities, which are often underfunded. By increasing the metropolitan area population limit, more of these communities will be eligible to apply for financial support for development. This potentially means better living conditions and access to services for residents in these regions.
Key points
Increases the population limit from 1 million to 2 million for metropolitan areas, expanding the pool of eligible communities.
More Colonias communities will be able to apply for development funds, potentially improving their infrastructure and services.
