Plain-English Summary

The Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) helps low-income families pay heating and cooling bills, but the agencies running it often lack enough staff to process applications quickly. This bill would provide funding and support to hire more workers at these agencies so they can help more people get assistance faster. The change would primarily benefit low-income households struggling with energy costs and the state and local agencies that administer the program.
