The American Rescue Plan was signed into law by President Biden on March 11, 2021. The $1.9 trillion dollar plan offers assistance to millions of Americans and assistance to communities struggling to retain normalcy during the COVID-19 pandemic. The City of Trenton will receive $73.8 million over the next two years.

Current regulations include support for public health expenditures, addressing negative economic impacts related to COVID-19, replacing lost public sector revenue, providing premium pay for essential workers, and investing in water, sewer, and broadband infrastructure.

In order to help evaluate Administration, City Council, and community project ideas, the City organized the Trenton American Rescue Plan Advisory Committee.

Check with this page for more in-depth updates on the American Rescue Plan and how you can provide input. All ideas and questions are reviewed by the Mayor's policy team and the ARP Advisory Committee. In the meantime we encourage all participants to register, comment and like on their favorite posts.
