Rural Communities

Summary

The measure sought to establish a new Office of Rural Prosperity within the Department of Commerce, set up regional liaison centers, and launch block‑grant and smart‑technology grant programs for “growth‑impeded” counties. It also changed how certain tax revenues are distributed to fiscally‑constrained counties and required extensive reporting and oversight. The bill never passed and died in the Senate messages stage.
