Wicked Local
The Massachusetts congressional delegation is urging members of Congress to pass legislation that extends Essex County’s designation as one of 55 national heritage areas across the United States.
The Essex National Heritage Area (Essex Heritage) stands to lose roughly $628,000 in matching federal dollars annually if Congress fails to act before Sept. 30 arrives.
In front of the Salem Custom House on Thursday afternoon, Sen. Edward Markey – flanked by Rep. Seth Moulton, Mayor Kim Driscoll, and state Rep. Paul Tucker – announced he and Sen. Elizabeth Warren filed a Senate bill seeking the Essex National Heritage Area’s re-authorization.
