REPORT - 2026 FEDERAL LEGISLATIVE PLATFORM
BACKGROUND: Since 2018, the City has been actively working with our contracted federal lobbyist team in Washington, D.C., MMO Partners, to engage our federal representatives and federal government agencies on our City’s policy, recovery, and resiliency needs. The City will have multiple opportunities to secure funding during the second year of the 119th Congressional session, which includes the 2026-2027 federal funding cycle, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, and the Inflation Reduction Act. To prepare for these activities, staff has identified federal legislative priorities in the proposed 2026 Federal Legislative Platform for consideration by the City Council.
RECOMMENDATION: The Communications and Intergovernmental Relations Office recommends that the Council, by resolution, adopt the 2026 Federal Legislative Platform. This item has no impact on current fiscal year budget.
