All 14 members of Georgia's U.S. House delegation are urging a congressional budget subcommittee to support federal funding for the stalled Savannah Harbor Expansion Project. They signed the letter Wednesday, addressed to U.S. Rep. Mike Simpson, R-Idaho, the chairman of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development, outlining their priorities for the fiscal 2015 Energy and Water Appropriations Bill. "The Port of Savannah is one of the busiest in the country, and this investment will benefit communities well beyond Georgia's borders," said U.S. Rep. John Barrow, a Democrat representing Georgia's 12th Congressional District.
