Welcome to Michigan's online source for information about the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act). The Recovery Act, signed into law by President Barack Obama on February 17, 2009, represents the largest federal investment increase in America's roads, bridges and mass transit in 50 years. It also provides the most significant expansion in tax cuts for low and moderate income households ever. This aggressive economic recovery plan is designed to jumpstart our economy, create jobs, and help Americans struggling to provide for their families.

Oversight and Accountability
Recovery.gov logoOversight and Accountability
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act) spells out clear reporting and certification requirements to ensure each state maintains strict accountability and transparency and in their use of federal economic recovery funds.  In this section, we'll post information related to this important responsibility, including project certifications, reports, and other required documents.  

Role of the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO):  The Recovery Act delineates an important oversight role for the GAO to ensure that federal economic recovery funds are used as specified in law.  Michigan is one of 16 states the GAO will follow over the next few years to analyze how Recovery Act dollars are being spent. GAO will also review specific project areas, such as trade, education, small business, and health care, and comment on reports filed by fund recipients. 

Reporting Fraud and Abuse: Allegations about fraud or abuse in connection with projects or programs funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act can be reported to the federal Office of the Inspector General:  http://www.recovery.gov/.

The federal Recovery website includes information to alert the public about frauds and scams:
