For those interested in the text of the federal stimulus bill, see this excerpted post below from Washington Watch. Once at that blog entry, try searching for “state” to see what’s expected of state governments that apply for stimulus funds.
------------------------------------------------------
Last week, the House Appropriations Committee posted a copy of the economic stimulus bill, called the “American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009,” online. Though it hasn’t been officially introduced yet, in a statement released Thursday, the committee said the bill would be considered by Congress within the next two weeks.
The bill’s reported tally of $825 billion in spending works out to about $8,800 per U.S. family, or $2,800 per person in the United States.
Care to learn where that money is going? Want to see the changes to substantive law that are in the bill along with the spending?
The PDF version of the bill on the committee web site is difficult to read, so we’ve produced a cleaner-looking html version just for you. You can also grab a cleaned-up plaintext copy of the bill here.
