In February 2009, in response to significant weakness in the economy, lawmakers enacted the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). The legislation’s numerous spending and revenue provisions can be grouped into several categories according to their focus, which include, providing funds to states and localities; supporting people in need; purchasing goods and services; and providing temporary tax relief for individuals and businesses. This book discusses the economic impact of the ARRA five years after its enactment.
