Economic Stimulus Bill

To whom it may concern,

Too much of the proposed economic stimulus bill funds projects that bolster our crashing petroleum based economy. We are throwing money away when we spend on highway expansion and saving suburban housing tracts. The real test of this bill will be its funding for transit, inter-city high speed rail, and the electrification of our transportation sector. The President has promised to move us into a new green economy. How will this bill allocate funding to support this?
