Follow The Money, Stimulus Style

Want to track where all the stimulus money is going in Oregon?

Heeding taxpayers' call for accountability and transparency, the state on Monday launched an Oregon Stimulus Reporting Map that details exactly where taxpayer stimulus dollars are being spent in Oregon. Phase 1 is up and running and shows spending breakdowns by county.

Phases 2 and 3 will eventually detail specific project information and how the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act dollars are being spent on upgrades to education, workforce training, public safety and housing.

At least now we can watch exactly where our dollars are getting sunk.
