on Monday, January 19, 2009

I'm not sure they see the joke yet, but the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act being proposed by the house aims at "unprecedented accountability, and will set up a board that will report on unintended use of funds, and protect fraud whistle blowers:

... no kidding, the summary proposes a RAAT Board.

...A Recovery Act Accountability and Transparency Board will be created to review management of recovery dollars and provide early warning of problems. The seven member board includes Inspectors General and Deputy Cabinet secretaries.
• The Government Accountability Office and the Inspectors General are provided additional funding and access for special review of recovery funding.
• State and local whistleblowers who report fraud and abuse are protected.
