How You Can Track the Bailout Trillions

As the White House and Recovery Board develops www.recovery.gov there are various other efforts underway to follow stimulus and bailout money being spent. Reason has been keeping an updated list of spending (last blogged here). Other organizations have come up with some other good ways to track what’s going on:

Mercatus Institute’s run down on financial crisis news: Economic Recovery Digest

American University’s investigative workshop: Track where every TARP dollar goes state by state

Federal Reserve: breakdown of stimulus programs
