Massa on the stimulus

by: Exile on Ericsson St.

Thu Feb 05, 2009 at 10:53:47 AM EST


Via F29th, Eric Massa has a list of projects that the stimulus might fund in NY-29:

     
.         $95,710,930 for Higher Education School Construction -- SUNY --NYS Economic Recovery Projects

·         $163,816,000 for Transportation Infrastructure--DOT-NYS Economic Recovery Projects

·         $11,300 for Energy Infrastructure and Green Jobs--NY Power Authority--NYS Economic Recovery Package

·         $11,100,000 for Waste Water Infrastructure--Environmental Facilities Corp--NYS Economic Recovery Projects

·         $17,550,000 for Transportation Infrastructure--NYS Thruway Authority--NYS Economic Recovery Projects

·         $35,000,000 for Clean Water--Department of Health Public Water Supply Protection--NYS Economic Recovery Projects

·         $4,175,000 for State Parks Infrastructure--NYS Economic Recovery Projects

·         $2,282,868 for Affordable Housing and Community Economic Development--Main Street Program--NYS Economic Recovery Projects

·         $4,037,500 for Affordable Housing and Community Economic Development--Community Development Block Grant--NYS Economic Recovery Projects

·         $45,052,732 for Affordable Housing and Community Economic Development--Division of Housing and Community Renewal--NYS Economic Recovery Projects

The Corning Leader (no link, it's subscription only) agrees with Massa's projections:

U.S. Rep. Eric Massa thinks he can get his hands on nearly $380 million to fund projects in the 29th Congressional District.

That jaw dropping amount would come from the $3 billion New York state would receive as part of the proposed federal economic stimulus package approved last week in the House and being debated now in the Senate.

[....]

Massa's predecessor, former U.S. Rep. Randy Kuhl, always took pride in what he brought back to the district and even bragged he had secured $250 million in funding in just his first term. That was impressive then, and would be today.

Massa could surpass that figure in just his first few months and appears determined to do so.

Props to Massa (0.00 / 0)
He is doing an incredible job as a freshman Congressman.  OI think he's the stand-out of the NY freshman class.
