About Stimulus Watch: More than $600 million in federal stimulus funds is headed to the six-county Sacramento region, part of the White House's efforts to jumpstart the economy. The volume of money and the quantity of contractors and programs involved call for careful scrutiny. The Sacramento Bee is playing its part as a government watchdog. This page offers our ongoing coverage and state and local maps that pinpoint stimulus projects. Still, we need your help. Join our watchdog efforts by filling out a form at the bottom of this page with your tips about stimulus spending. We want to hear from you.
