White House to host stimulus conference
The White House will host a stimulus conference for local officials on Wednesday, following up on a similar event last week for state officials.
Vice President Biden and Earl Devaney, the former Massachusetts police officer who now heads up the recovery package oversight board, will headline the event. President Obama will be out in California holding a town hall meeting.
The day-long conference will be a chance for local officials to suggest ideas and ask questions, but will also be another opportunity for the White House to warn against wasting the money.
