- Why bother with spending – it’ll just get worse, right Cantor & Boehner? New Jersey has passed a stimulus bill of its own, reports the Star-Ledger of Newark. The bill includes incentives for developers. However, the Star-Ledger notes, the bill does not call for recipients of tax breaks to meet any new standards on transparency — a point of contention after last week’s arrests of three Garden State mayors on charges of accepting bribes from a would-be developer. New York City will be left out of $1 billion in stimulus funds meant to avoid police layoffs, the Daily News reports. According to the paper, Justice Department officials decided the money should go to cities with a combination of serious budget shortfalls and high crime rates. Mayor Michael Bloomberg said it doesn’t make sense to punish New York’s police force for its success in keeping crime low. The AP adds that Seattle, Houston and Pittsburgh will also be left out of the funding program. Nevada Gov. Jim Gibbons is pushing to hire a “stimulus czar,” reports the AP. The position is expected to cost $500,000, money that would come from the state’s contingency fund, since it wasn’t included in Nevada’s budget. Neighboring California has such a position, as do a number of other states.07.28
