According to Sens. Shelley Moore Capito and Joe Manchin, the town of Moorefield will get almost $16.9 million in loans and $8.35 million in grants from the USDA Office of Rural Development.
They say the city of New Cumberland will get $1.77 million in loans and $655,000 in grants.
Manchin says the funding will help the communities provide essential services that can spur their economies.
