Give Me Money -- That's What I Want!

The Beatles weren't singing about the US economy, but they may as well have been. So as everyone knows, this year the government unveiled its new $787 Billion Stimulus Plan to infuse the economy with money and confidence. That's some serious money!

But have you ever wondered who's actually getting that money. What types of projects may be funded. And, how does it impact your state and local community?

Here’s the site with the answers: www.StimulusWatch.org

StimulusWatch.org was built to help the government keep its pledge to invest stimulus money smartly and to add transparency and accountability to the process.

At StimulusWatch.org, you can find and review projects that are candidates for funding by federal grant programs. You can even sort the projects by activity, expense, and need.

Better still, you can access a list of projects by state, so you can see how the Stimulus Plan may impact your state and local community - including costs, number of jobs, and exact locations. Simply select your state and review the projects under consideration. You can even add comments about the value of the projects listed ("$5M for that?!?!")

It's convenient, interactive, and easy to understand - check it out…
