State match funding related to the federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act funding provided, and money appropriated.

HF 1023 allocates $153 million from Minnesota's general fund to the Department of Transportation for matching federal infrastructure grants under the federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA). This one-time appropriation, available until June 30, 2029, enables Minnesota to access federal funding that requires a state contribution for transportation projects. The funds must be used in compliance with prior state law requirements (Laws 2023, chapter 68, article 4, section 111). This directly affects the state's ability to secure federal infrastructure grants for transportation initiatives.
