Last Friday, Governor Hobbs launched The Governor’s Infrastructure and Jobs Taskforce & held a “Building Arizona’s Economic Future”.  The event largely focused around celebrating the wins from the CHIPS Act, the Bipartisan Infrastructure bill (IIJA) and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA).

The Office released a new Governor’s Infrastructure and Jobs Taskforce Dashboard showing the projects being funded so far. It includes overlays for Legislative and Congressional Districts. 

Note: the dashboard currently shows the bipartisan infrastructure law investments in AZ (IIJA). The team has a goal of adding the Inflation Reduction Act investments soon.
