Economic Stimulus Recommendations


On December 16, 2008 IEDC and a team of economic development leaders from across the country were invited to meet with President-elect Barack Obama's Treasury Transition Team in Washington, D.C. to provide recommendations for the new Administration's economic stimulus package. Participating organizations included: the Association of Defense Communities (ADC), the California Association for Local Economic Development (CALED), the Council on Competitiveness, the Council of Development Finance Agencies (CDFA), the International Downtown Association (IDA), the National Association of Development Organizations (NADO), and the National Association of Development Companies (NADCO). The recommendations they provided are essential to shaping a viable economic stimulus package to lift the nation out of the economic crisis and meet long-term needs for sustainable development. These documents include summaries of the recommendations as well as the full papers of each organization.
