Senator Bob Casey held an economic roundtable at Martin Guitar according to an article in the Express-Times.
In the article it states, “He [Casey] touted the local impact of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Of the $787 billion provided by the act, $16 billion went to Pennsylvania. More than $23 million went to Northampton County school districts and $50 million went to county transportation and infrastructure improvements.”
I’m somewhat surprised that Casey would “tout” the money PA received when it is 2% of the total. For one of the larger states in the country it would seem we should have received a larger share.
I also don’t understand how sending $23M to our school districts assists with economic recovery.
On this page I will have all information on sports events from Nazareth High School and all other sports events in the country. I will also have news about myself and other people.
