Several months have passed since the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act became law. The impact of the stimulus has remained a key focus of politicians, commentators and citizens. That piece of legislation has spawned myriad journal articles, news, legislation and rules at both the state and federal levels of government. There is a lot to keep track of if you are interested in how the Act is impacting the economy.
To simplify things, Westlaw has released several new databases to help cut out the clutter and help you focus on Stimulus Plan information. There are databases for news (STIMPLAN-NEWS), journal articles (STIMPLAN-LAWREV), proposed state and federal regulations (STIMPLAN-FR and STIMPLAN-ADC) and proposed state and federal legislation (STIMPLAN-BILLTXT).
For example, if you want to search for articles about job creation, run the search JOB /3 CREAT! in the STIMPLAN-LAWREV database.
