In the coming weeks and months, legislators in the State Capitol will dole out $800 million in state stimulus spending (not to be confused with federal stimulus dollars). While economic projections and data show a quick recovery, there are still tens of thousands of business owners and employees with uncertain futures, students who have fallen behind, and miles of road still needing repair, enhancement, and expansion.
That’s why, with these funds, our focus is simple: jobs, students, roads & bridges.
