Federal officials spoke on Thursday about how last year's stimulus law is still impacting Louisville. "I'm just one mayor of just one American city, but you can multiply me by thousands, and our stories by millions, and then you can have an idea of what these ARP dollars have meant for rescuing our city and laying a strong foundation for economic growth into the future," said Mayor Greg Fischer.Fischer joined the Secretary of the Treasury, White House Advisors and other mayors to talk about how the bill helped the local economy recover from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.Fischer said the city was already strapped for money before the pandemic hit. So, they would have had to cut services, instead of expanding them, when people needed them the most.
