Overview of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009
(Recovery Act)
The Recovery Act was signed into law by President Obama on February 17th,
2009. It is an unprecedented effort to jumpstart our economy, create or save
millions of jobs, and put a down payment on addressing long-neglected
challenges so our country can thrive in the 21st century. The Act is an
extraordinary response to a crisis unlike any since the Great Depression,
and includes measures to modernize our nation's infrastructure, enhance
energy independence, expand educational opportunities, preserve and improve
affordable health care, provide tax relief, and protect those in greatest
need. Learn more on
