NSSGA Statement on Pause of IIJA & IRA Funding Disbursements
ALEXANDRIA, VA – The National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association’s Interim CEO Michele Stanley issued the following statement on the White House Executive Order on Unleashing American Energy, which was issued on Monday, Jan. 20.
“Last week, the White House issued an executive order pausing disbursements for funds from the Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act (IIJA) and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). The funding of these two bills is critical to provide much needed certainty in the planning of infrastructure projects, and is vital to the success of our industry. We are glad the reimbursements to states for formula funds has resumed. We will work with Congress and the Trump administration for more details and guidance on other projects affected by this EO.”
