Readout of Communities in Action: Kansas, Oklahoma and Missouri

On February 22, the White House Office of Intergovernmental Affairs and the Office of Public Engagement hosted 70 local elected officials and community leaders from across the states of Kansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri as part of its “Communities in Action” event series.

During the half-day forum, senior Biden-Harris Administration officials highlighted the impacts of the American Rescue Plan, Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, and Inflation Reduction Act on communities across the three states. Participants included local elected officials, labor leaders, businesses owners, community organizers, and health care professionals who work to leverage the historic investments from the President’s Investing in America vision to create and expand opportunities for working families.

The forum was the twenty-sixth in a series of “Communities in Action” events that the White House hosts with state and local leaders to demonstrate how the Biden-Harris Administration is delivering critical progress for the American people.

Administration officials included Senior Advisor and Director of Intergovernmental Affairs Tom Perez, Director of Public Engagement Stephen Benjamin, Chair of the Council on Environmental Quality Brenda Mallory, American Rescue Plan Implementation Coordinator Gene Sperling, General Services Administrator Robin Carnahan and Deputy Director of Gun Violence Prevention Rob Wilcox.
