Employment Transportation programs are funded through the Washington State Department of Transportation Consolidated Grants Program. During COVID we were able to use Employment Transportation funds to help the community get basic necessities. Here is an excerpt from someone we helped.
A HUGE thank you for extending COVID transportation assistance to Cowlitz County residents. I use food stamps and Medicaid, but have had no personal transportation since February. No grocery stores in this area take food stamps online for delivery, only pick-up (and only Walmart).
I also am not able to get my prescriptions delivered (Walmart) via mail or to the house without this service, or get to medical appointments without Medicaid transportation. This puts my family and me at risk. We have limited cash; I’m partially disabled and my mom is retired.
Using money for cab fare is counterproductive. I recently received a letter from DSHS about our food benefits. We had funds that accumulated because I couldn’t get to the store to use them (until recently) since mid-February.
My elderly mother bought the family groceries for weeks with her cash (delivery). The CAP bus stop is two miles down a steep hill. I could not find any alternate transportation services.

Read articleHouse leadership canceled the September 21 and September 28 session weeks on September 3, leaving four legislative days before members leave until after the November 3 midterms. Three separate deadlines — the continuing resolution, the surface transportation extension, and the statutory freeze on OMB's grant-rule rewrite — now expire on the same day, with a lame-duck Congress and a handful of weeks to resolve them. Here is what that means for anyone holding or chasing a federal award.
Read articleGates committed $540.2 million over a decade to the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation — the largest gift in University of Washington history — while IHME's federal grant income falls from $7.3 million to a projected $4.8 million. The gift is a case study in the anchor-funder model: what it can do that federal money cannot, and the concentration risk it quietly underwrites.
