Over the past few years, Congress has passed numerous pieces of historical legislation – the America Rescue Plan (ARP), the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), the CHIPS and Science Act, and Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) – that provided transformational funding to states and cities to invest in a competitive, inclusive, and sustainable future. On October 18, 2023, Brookings Metro and The Kresge Foundation brought local, regional, and state leaders together to showcase innovative investments and replicable strategies, learn from each other as they navigate implementation challenges, and dialogue with Washington stakeholders to inform future policies and partnerships.
