Our Economic Recovery
Dear Friends,
As you know, President Obama recently signed an historic $787 billion jobs and economic recovery package. For New Hampshire, it couldn’t come at a more critical moment. Unemployment is now more than 5.7 percent. Home prices are declining. Communities, struggling to maintain critical jobs and services, are faced with nearly $200 million of state budget cuts over the next year.
That is why I have assembled a Resource Guide to the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, which compiles information on many federal programs and funding opportunities available to individuals, communities and businesses in New Hampshire as a result of the jobs and economic recovery package.
President Obama’s Jobs and Recovery Plan will help create and protect over 16,000 jobs for New Hampshire families and provide for the largest middle class tax cut in our nation’s history by cutting taxes for 95 percent of American families. It will help repair our roads, bridges, schools and other vital infrastructure, and it will invest in new green collar jobs for the 21st century.
Under this landmark legislation, New Hampshire will receive millions of dollars in direct aid, Medicaid assistance, and competitive grants that collectively are expected to create and save nearly 16,000 jobs in our state. It is critical that our families, businesses and municipalities have the information they need to access these funds as quickly as possible.
Please take advantage of the information in this guide, and if you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to call my Recovery Director, Lisa Levine, at (603) 223-9814 or Lisa.Levine@mail.house.gov. I also encourage you to visit www.recovery.gov and http://www.nh.gov/recovery/ for more information. With the ingenuity and hard work of Granite Staters and millions of Americans, I am confident in the months and years ahead our State and our nation will be more vibrant and prosperous than ever.
