Eagle Peak Rock and Paving created and saved 32 jobs thanks to an $8 million federal stimulus contract to repair Glacier Point Road in Yosemite National Park.
But you won’t find that on Recovery.gov, the government’s Web site for tracking stimulus money.
You also won’t find the eight employees hired by Owensboro-Daviess County Regional Airport in Kentucky, or the 46 jobs claimed for some $65 million in grants awarded to the Louisiana Department of Social Services.
The three are among thousands of recipients who didn’t file the required reports detailing what they did with stimulus money and how many people they hired or retained.
With mounting criticism over the accuracy of jobs numbers, the White House budget office is scrambling to identify recipients who didn’t report.

How about the eight million of the stimulus money that Obama directed to pay-off Hilary Clintons campaign debts! Remember Obama promised to pay this debt from his own campaign contributions.
I don't think that the people whose jobs have been SAVED are all submitting reports either.
As usual~poor accounting in government.
