OVERVIEW
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act is providing an invaluable infusion of billions of dollars into New Mexico's economy. Governor Bill Richardson is leading efforts to create and save jobs, keep essential public services flowing, and build the infrastructure for a revitalized economy by making greater use of technology, renewable energy and an improved public school system.
New Mexicans will benefit from more than $3.4 billion in Recovery Act awards; at least $547 million in tax relief and one-time economic payments flowing directly to individuals; and $345 million in additional bonding authority to provide for school construction and other economic boosts.
In addition, several applications are pending with federal agencies that could result in tens of millions - if not hundreds of millions - of additional Recovery Act funds for renewable energy, broadband projects, increased technology funding, major road construction, and education reform.
Of New Mexico's $3.4 billion, about $2.1 billion will flow through state government and over $1.3 billion flows from the federal government to cities, towns and tribes, or will be spent directly by federal agencies on projects in New Mexico.
