American Recovery and Reinvestment Act Subcommittee Information (ARRA)
ARRA is an interim subcommittee of the Legislative Finance Committee created to provide oversight of stimulus spending, including but not limited to the appropriations contained in HB 645. The subcommittee will monitor to assure that HB 645 is implemented as intended by the legislature, and that the desired outcomes, including a stronger Montana economy, are achieved. The information obtained through the oversight process will be used to improve implementation of the act, identify areas of concern, celebrate success, and provide insight on other policy issues that may need to be addressed.
Members of ARRA include bi-partisan representation from the House and Senate.
The ARRA is staffed by Barbara Smith of the Legislative Fiscal Division, who may be reached at basmith@mt.gov or 406-444-5347.
