A message from Governor John E. Baldacci
Welcome to the State of Maine Website devoted to The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. I appreciate the great interest from municipalities, institutions, businesses and others in Maine regarding the impact of this federal legislation.
I have worked to make Maine State government more transparent and open, and am encouraged by the call by President Obama and Congress to ensure that the American people can track the Stimulus dollars once they are released.
While the stimulus package is taking shape in Congress, and it is too early to determine what types and how much funding Maine will receive, this page will enable you to see information about the process as it unfolds, and to serve as the portal by which you can track how funds are being used in Maine.
I believe Maine is well-positioned to benefit from the developing federal economic stimulus package. The plan holds the promise to put people to work and invest in crucial infrastructure.
I hope you find this information useful as we move forward together to build our economic future.
