U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood has asked states to redirect the spending to the most hard-hit parts of the country. But much of the stimulus money from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act has been committed, and there are questions about where the money has gone and how many jobs have been created. We talk with Kim Cooper, the assistant director of engineering for the Nevada Department of Transportation; Michael Grabell, Lead Reporter on ProPublica's "Eye on the Stimulus;" and Corey Newcome, Division Manager for Las Vegas Paving.
