Today, Congressman Ron Estes announced $14,021,668 in CARES Act funding for Wichita Transit through the Federal Transit Administration. The City of Wichita can use funds for bus driver wages and personal protection equipment, as well as preventative maintenance and sanitation of vehicles.
"As we start to reopen Wichita, it's critical that workers and families have safe, reliable transportation," said Rep. Estes. "I'm glad that Secretary Chao and the Trump Administration are ensuring Wichita and Kansas are receiving necessary funding from the CARES Act."
