Dear Friends,
This week we have been celebrating Sunshine Week – recognizing Florida’s open government laws. We serve the people of Florida with openness and transparency every day. However, every year during this week, we strive to find new ways to make state and local government more accessible to the public. To achieve this goal, today we launched a new Web site, www.FlaRecovery.com.
As you know, these are challenging times for our nation and for our state. Yet, I believe that Florida will weather this storm as we have weathered storms in the past. Brighter days are ahead. We know people are hurting, and that is why I am grateful for Florida's fair share of the federal American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
FlaRecovery.com will give the people of Florida a window to observe how these federal funds are working for Floridians. This Web site will empower the people of Florida to see every step of getting the much-needed federal recovery dollars into the Sunshine State’s economy. Visitors to the site can easily connect to information about programs that can help during these challenging times. The Web site provides easy access to all public records and documents related to the implementation of the federal stimulus dollars. It also will help Floridians easily connect to information about programs that can help during these challenging times – help in finding a job and help in applying for programs such as food stamps, Medicaid and cash assistance.
America is in the early stages of the federal recovery effort, and the FlaRecovery.com Web site will evolve as information flows down from federal level. I invite you to check on our progress and track the steps we are taking to get this much-needed relief to our people. Our schools, our workforce, our transportation projects and our most vulnerable residents will receive the funds they deserve.
I am confident that we as Floridians will work together to recover from these challenging economic times. I hope for a speedy recovery that will enable us to continue to provide our citizens and visitors with a great place to live, work and play.
Thank you and may God bless our beautiful state.
