FedSpending.org updated

Our friend Adam Hughes of OMB Watch writes:

We released new data on FedSpending.org yesterday. We've now got a complete FY 2007 year for contracts, the first quarter of FY 2008, and a partial second quarter (everything for the second quarter except DoD, which isn't very much). There is also updated assistance data through the third quarter of FY 2007. Here's the release we sent out yesterday.

Adam adds: "We're planning another data update for the end of this year."

    Someone should investigate Transportation Advisory Committees...reported in NC to be "self-governed". These powerful committees can over-rule the vote of elected officials in regards to road planning...Federal funds are co-mingled with state funds and private money."Heart of the Triad" is one example. Developers open up rural areas for development via eminent domain condemnation...NO FARMS will remain in the US as long as TACs exist.
