Vice President Biden's New Report on 100 Recovery Act Projects Changing America

100 Recovery Act Projects That Are Changing America, September 2010

  • “Many of these projects also lay the foundation for sustainable economic growth and job creation: traditional infrastructure projects like highway, railroad, and waterway construction and 21st century infrastructure projects like the installation of broadband lines and towers. What’s more, whole new industries are springing up on American soil. In the past eighteen months, we have broken ground on nine electric‐car battery plants, which will provide capacity for twenty percent of the world’s car batteries—up from two percent when the Recovery Act passed. We have approved work on the world’s largest solar plant, we are supporting wind farms, we have weatherized almost 200,000 homes, and we have installed over two million smart meters. We are building improved health facilities for American troops, helping small businesses get loans, and building cutting‐edge clean energy technologies in the United States.”
