The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act in Oregon

The Biden Administration, through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (now known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law), made billions in funding available for states, federally recognized sovereign tribal nations, local governments, and public-private partnership opportunities. This funding, as well as grant opportunities through the Inflation Reduction Actwill be used to rebuild America’s roads, bridges, and rails, expand access to clean drinking water, ensure every American has access to high-speed internet, tackle the climate crisis, advance environmental action, and invest in communities that have too often been left behind.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the IRA presented Oregon with an unprecedented opportunity to secure federal funds to replace aging infrastructure, propel climate action, and invest in urban, rural, and frontier communities across the state, as well as facilitate and advance partnerships across stakeholders, state agencies, and local jurisdictions.








Visualize Oregon’s Wins:

An interactive map was developed to allow all Oregonians to view the projects that have been submitted in their area of interest, along with a brief summary and information on the award outcome. The map will be used to outreach BIL and IRA successes, coordinate partnerships around unfunded projects, and identify gaps moving forward. Click here to see the map!

Inflation Reduction Act 

The Biden-Harris Administration dedicated historic investments to improve climate resiliency, restore at-risk species, and conserve our natural and working landscapes. Investments from the IRA are putting money back into the pockets of everyday Oregonians and Americans across the country. With the rising cost of electric bills, gasoline, and groceries, these investments are critical to supporting working people and families everywhere. Since 2022, agencies and partners have submitted 236 applications requesting $753M, and were successful in receiving 156 awards totaling $350M in federal funds for the conservation and management of natural resources in Oregon.
