Rebuild Rural America Act of 2023
The Rebuild Rural America Act of 2023 establishes a new Rural Innovation and Partnership Administration within the Department of Agriculture and creates a Rural Future Partnership Fund to provide block grants to rural communities. The bill requires rural areas to form "rural partnership councils" that develop comprehensive development plans covering infrastructure, housing, healthcare access, workforce development, and economic diversification. It authorizes $10 billion annually for fiscal years 2022-2026, with increased funding for high-poverty areas, and requires annual reporting on progress toward specific development goals. The legislation aims to strengthen rural communities through locally driven planning and federal investment in key areas of need.
