Here's a short version;

150 million for climate stuff ( to be determined by Democrats later)

2 billion for transportation stuff ( to be determined by Democrats later)

100 no 200 Million for education stuff ( to be determined by Democrats later)

alot of billions for states ( to be determined by Democrats later)

150 million for studies ( to be determined by Democrats later)

Believe it or not that's not to far off from the truth

I'm thrilled! I just found out that they're giving $4 million to Ponkapoag Golf Course to fix the fairways. That's a great way to spend stimulus money!

From what I understand, they're looking to bring the U.S. Open there in the future. It's actually possible that the $4 mill could be recouped if they did. If they move back to all the original tee placements on course 1, it will play about 7600 + yards. Course 1 is a disaster, but course 2 is pretty decent for the greens fees they charge.

Is that still a state owned course?

Yes, I think it's operated by the parks and recreation department or MDC.

That's what I thought. 4 million won't even be enough to administer the project.
