Beshear's weekly address focuses on stimulus

To view Gov. Steve Beshear's latest weekly Web commentary, "About Kentucky," click here for the video. 

This week, the governor speaks on the effects and focus of the $3 billion in Recovery and Reinvestment Act money sent to the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

A new program funded by the stimulus money, Kentucky at Work, focuses primarily on jobs, though much of the stimulus money is allocated for specific social programs. Spending of the recovery act funds can be tracked on the Kentucky at Work Web site, www.kentuckyatwork.ky.gov.
