Highway stimulus is right way to go, Harrisburg Patriot-News

November 30, 2008

"When the Works Progress Administration ended in 1943, it had employed more than 8.5 million people on 1.4 million individual projects. More than 650,000 miles of highways, roads and streets were built, and more than 124,000 bridges were constructed, repaired or improved.  

Small wonder that in just about every city and town throughout America, some of those original WPA projects are still a part of our existing infrastructure. It's hard to imagine what our communities would be like without them. "  For Judy Schwank's complete op-ed, please click here.
