From AZBiz.com:
After weeks of being prodded, Gov. Jan Brewer formally applied May 21 for Arizona’s more than $1 billion in federal stimulus money.
About $557 million of the first money to be received will go toward education funding, Brewer’s office announced, with $250 million to be spent on K-12 education, $154 going to universities and $29 million to community colleges. All should received the money to be applied to current fiscal-year budgets, she said.
Another $275 million will go to education spending when it is received in the fall. Arizona will also receive a $185 million in general stimulus money that can spent over the next three years but Brewer didn’t say how that would be spent.
