White House Action Could Impact Federal Funding for Battle Creek

White House Action Could Impact Federal Funding for Battle Creek Battle Creek and five other Michigan cities could lose federal support if the White House gets its way.   Right now, the federal government threshold for metropolitan areas is a population of 50,000.  But the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) wants to double that to 100,000. A bipartisan bill in Congress from Senator Gary Peters (D-MI) and Senator Rob Portman (R-OH) would stop that move in its tracks, for now, keeping funding formulas intact for cities like Battle Creek while the potential impact can be studied. A release from Senator Peters’ office said communities in Michigan and across the United States count on this designation for federal funding that goes towards important programs. The proposal could threaten access to vital federal resources for nearly 150 communities across the country, including six in Michigan.
