Hope is On the Way
President Obama outlines how the Recovery and Reinvestment Act stimulus will help you, and previews this coming busy week: a fiscal summit on Monday, an address to Congress and the nation on the state of the economy and what we need to do. The President is looking at this complex and scary situation comprehensively: "We can't address any of our problems without addressing them all." That includes oversight, and a news report Sunday says that tomorrow, he will appoint an investigator to oversee stimulus spending--a former Secret Service agent who exposed corruption at the Interior Department in the Bush administration.
