Municipalities must feel that the federal government supports their work. This is not even a matter of setting aside additional funding, but, perhaps only of adapting already existing programs.
Earlier, I mentioned the gas tax. The gas tax must be expanded to make it possible to carry out community-based projects. We've also talked about programs for students. Perhaps we will have less need of students working in the tourist industry this summer, but we may need them to carry out municipal or agricultural work.
So the existing programs must be modified and adapted to the crisis to help cities contribute to the stimulus.
