Representative Manning Applauds Federal Coronavirus Relief

State Rep. Gayle Manning (R-North Ridgeville) commends the federal funding relief that will be disseminated across Ohio. Within the local area, the Lorain County General Health District will receive $256,092 to help aid in the fight against COVID-19.

“Together, we all face this health crisis and its imperative our health district have funding they need,” said Manning. “I am grateful to the portion of funds Lorain County was able to receive as our health workers so desperately need it to ensure the safety and protection for both themselves and their patients during this pandemic.”

On March 25, the Ohio State Controlling Board approved the flow of federal relief funds that will be allocated to health districts throughout the state. This federal relief derives from the Coronavirus Preparedness and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act that President Trump signed on March 8.

In total, the Controlling Board approved $15,620,977 in federal funding to be awarded across Ohio as a result of the Coronavirus Preparedness and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act.
