Dear District Residents,
Welcome to recovery.dc.gov!
This website is a resource tool that provides information about how the recently enacted American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA)* will impact District residents and businesses.
ARRA, also known as the federal stimulus bill, was created to jump start the economy, produce jobs, and provide needed funds to state and local governments, as well as direct assistance to families who are struggling to make ends meet during this economic downturn.
The law provides funds to the District of Columbia for a variety of activities, including:
road and bridge construction
public transportation improvements
energy efficiency and environmental projects
health care and health research
education
public safety

In addition to help lessen the immediate impact of the nation’s economic problems on District residents, this stimulus bill gives us a unique opportunity to make major investments in our local infrastructure. This in turn will allow us to create a more environmentally sustainable, healthy, and vibrant city for residents and improve the District’s ability to attract tourists and business travelers.
We are 100 percent committed to taking advantage of every funding opportunity available to the District. My administration will ensure that taxpayer money is invested wisely and residents and businesses know where the money is going and how it will impact their city. This website will help us do that.
I encourage you to peruse the site to learn more about ARRA and the District’s efforts to put the resources it provides to the best possible use.
Sincerely,Adrian M. Fenty
