FY 2027 CPF Projects:
Congressman Moulton has submitted funding requests for Community Improvement Projects across the Sixth District. The funding requests were submitted to the House Committee on Appropriations for consideration and inclusion in the federal spending bills for Fiscal Year 2027.
Under guidelines issued by the Committee, each Representative may request funding for community projects for obligation in fiscal year 2027- although only a handful may actually be funded. Projects are restricted to specific accounts with differing eligibility.
In compliance with House Rules and Committee requirements, Rep. Moulton has certified that he, his spouse, and his immediate family have no financial interest in any of the projects he has requested.
In no particular order, here is a list of the projects Rep. Moulton has submitted for FY27:
Great Marsh Barriers Restoration
Recipient:
Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management
100 Cambridge Street, Suite 900
Boston, MA 02114
Request Amount: $1,000,000
The funding would be used to advance coastal habitat restoration and the lifespan of infrastructure spanning three communities in Essex County, Massachusetts. The project is an appropriate use of taxpayer funds because advancing comprehensive flow restoration across the Great Marsh, the largest marsh in New England, will benefit ecological function, improve aquatic passage, enhance habitat, and facilitate future marsh migration; infrastructure improvements will also reduce flood hazards and ensure access to critical transportation routes.

UMass Amherst Gloucester Marine Station Living Ecosystem
Recipient:
University of Massachusetts Amherst
930 Washington Street
Gloucester, MA, 01930
Request Amount: $1,000,000
The funding would be used to study, engineer, and design a living laboratory, equipped with underwater cameras and sensors powered by wave energy, that will monitor and measure ecosystem growth, change, and development. The project is an appropriate use of taxpayer funds because it will advance coastal resilience, economic development, and educate K-12 students throughout the coastal community of Gloucester, Massachusetts and the Gulf of Maine.
