Track How Colorado is Spending Stimulus Money Colorado has spent about a fifth of its money coming from the federal stimulus law. State officials announced Tuesday that the state has already spent about $345 million in stimulus money on wide-ranging projects from boosting food stamp payments to paying the salaries of public employees who might otherwise have been fired because of falling tax receipts. Colorado expects to receive about $1.6 billion from the stimulus law. Authorities say that figure will balloon to about $5.7 billion considering payments that won't come through the state, plus tax cuts. To take a look at the numbers yourself, and to see how your county is benefiting, just click on the link below to visit the state's recovery act spending web site. http://www.colorado.gov/recovery |
