Chair Hoyer Releases Video Showcasing Regional Leadership Council's Work to Implement the Investing in America Agenda

WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Congressman Steny H. Hoyer (MD-05), Chair of the Regional Leadership Council (RLC), released the following video highlighting the RLC’s work to implement the Investing in America agenda and to ensure that Americans nationwide feel the impact of House Democrats’ legislative achievements in the 117th Congress:

Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries created the Regional Leadership Council in January 2023 and appointed Congressman Hoyer to serve as chair. The RLC consists of twelve Members who each represent one of the United States' twelve regions. The council is working to ensure that Americans in every corner of the country and in every zip code can access the opportunities created by the historic policies that Democrats secured in the 117th Congress, including the American Rescue Plan, the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the CHIPS and Science Act, the Inflation Reduction Act, the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, the Honoring Our PACT Act, and many others. Most recently, members of the RLC met with U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm to discuss how the Investing in America agenda is saving Americans money while moving the U.S. closer to our climate goals. 

"The Regional Leadership Council is working tirelessly to make sure Americans in every corner of the country are seeing and feeling the impacts of the Investing in America agenda that Democrats delivered for them last Congress,” said Chair Hoyer. “We didn’t just pass this historic legislation, we are seeing to it that Americans feel these investments in their communities—the new and improved infrastructure in their towns because of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the chance to pursue the good-paying jobs because of the CHIPS and Science Act, the feeling of increased safety from the threats of gun violence because of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, and so much more. The Regional Leadership Council will keep working to ensure families across the country have the tools they need to Make It In America."
