Thanks to the passage of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the Federal government has set aside approximately $37 billion in competitive grant dollars to help states recover from the recession. Governor Kulongoski created The Oregon Way Advisory Group to enable the state to compete more effectively for this money. The Advisory Group will also ensure that the money creates immediate and long-term job opportunties for Oregonians. The Advisory Group will advise and assist state agencies seeking federal competitive grants by developing proposals that include innovative elements toward sustainability, renewable energy, carbon reduction, energy efficiency and green development. The group will also work to identify signature projects across the state that will showcase Oregon's green expertise to the nation, helping create long-term jobs as others look to Oregon to tap this knowledge base. |

Governor Kulongoski has signed "Go Oregon!" into law, authorizing the sale of bonds to fund important maintenance and construction projects at public facilities througout Oregon. Go Oregon! will quickly make $175 million available to pay for deferred maintenance of buildings and other facilities owned by state government, local communities, universities and community colleges. It will create badly needed jobs, sustain existing jobs, and inject money into Oregon's communities. By helping to "prime the pump" of the state economy, Go Oregon! will benefit everyone -- businesses and working Oregonians alike. |
