2,300 Stimulus Jobs May be Lost
(Crain’s) — A federal stimulus program that provided 2,300 Georgians with jobs will expire today — unless Congress agrees to an extension.
But state officials acknowledged that the program failed to meet its goals. The state had hoped to provide jobs for 5,000 people, and it used only half of the $21 million that it could have spent.
The goals were ambitious, said Eli Phillips, state Department of Human Services stimulus programs director, and the program didn’t start as quickly as the state had hoped.
