Will our listeners get their stimulus wishes?
All week we’ve been asking you how you would like to see the money in the stimulus bill spent, and you’ve come up with some great suggestions. Now that we know where the money is going to go, Takeaway Correspondent Andrea Bernstein will tell some of our listeners if their stimulus dreams will come true.
ShovelWatch is a joint project of the non-profit investigative outfit ProPublica, the morning news program The Takeaway and WNYC, New York’s flagship public radio station. With investigative reporting, interactive features and help from you, we’re tracking the stimulus bill dollars from Congress to your community.
Follow the dollars online and tell us how the stimulus plan is playing out in your community. We’re sharing your stories online and on air, and we’ll continue the investigation with your help.
