January 28, 2009 The Stimlus Bill Nears $900 Billion

If you're interested, here's all 647 pages of the bill. Honestly, some parts of it are a bit dull.

The WSJ has a nice graphic on who gets what.

A vote should come later this evening.

"I would love to not have to spend this money," Mr. Obama said, according to individuals familiar with the president's meetings with Republicans. Mr. Obama defended the plan, they said, but suggested he'd be open to new ideas to help small businesses, and that changes could come after the House vote.

"We're not going to get 100% agreement, and we might not even get 50% agreement," Mr. Obama told reporters after he left the Senate Republican lunch. "But I do think that people appreciate me walking them through my thought processes on this."
