Today, New York First Congressional District Representative Nick LaLota (R-Suffolk County) announced additional federal funding in the form of research grants for Stony Brook University. Through these grants, Stony Brook will receive an additional $1,473,339 in federal funding, bringing the total to $16,480,585 since January 2023.
“Stony Brook University provides education and jobs to many Long Islanders. I am always happy to see the federal government recognize the impact they have on our community. I’ve been fortunate to meet with the incredible team at Stony Brook several times since I was sworn in and always walk away impressed,” said LaLota. “Communities across Long Island benefit when federal dollars make it home. You can count on me to fight to ensure Long Islanders receive our fair share of the federal budget.”
