How are you tracking your stimulus funds?

It's not just major corporations that will benefit from the American Recovery and Reimvestment Act (ARRA).  Many state and local government entities will also have access to a large portion of the more than $780 billion marked for economic recovery.  If you haven't already done so, we suggest you visit the official Federal Government ARRA website at www.recovery.gov for more information about the Act.

Of specific importance is the President’s promise of accountability "We cannot overstate the importance of this effort. We are asking the American people to trust their government with an unprecedented level of funding to address the economic emergency. In return, we must prove to them that their dollars are being invested in initiatives and strategies that make a difference in their communities and across the country. Following through on our commitments for accountability and openness will create a foundation upon which we can build as we continue to tackle the economic crisis and the many other challenges facing our nation." This is a quote in a memorandum to Head of Departments and Agencies dated February 9, 2009.
