LOWNDES COUNTY, Ala. - A U.S. representative from Alabama is connecting with her constituents. Rep. Terri Sewell made stops in Lowndes and Wilcox counties Wednesday.”I think that the $1.3 trillion, bipartisan infrastructure bill is a promise that can truly be transformational, transformational for America, and definitely transformational for my constituents,” said Representative Terri Sewell.
“I’m excited to be able to report that $100 million will come to the state of Alabama for broadband, that more than $4 billion will come to improve roads and bridges in the state of Alabama. And so I as the lone Democrat, the lone person to vote in favor of this bipartisan infrastructure bill, I clearly want to make sure that we have an equitable distribution of those resources,” said Sewell.
“When I think about the need for better wastewater and systems right here in Lowndes County, the fact that I’ve been able to get millions of dollars, but those millions of dollars have not trickled to my constituents is a big concern of mine. And so we’re going to continue to fight and working with the state of Alabama working with USDA, and with the EPA, we will get solutions for this major problem.
