BailoutSleuth has updated its master list of banks that have been approved to receive taxpayer money through the Treasury Department's capital purchase program.

We've now identified 95 banks that have been picked to sell preferred stock to the Treasury Department as part of its plan to inject new capital directly into financial institutions to strengthen their balance sheets and stimulate lending.

The total amount of money approved for the banks is approaching $180 billion, a figure that does not include the $40 billion that the Treasury Department has pledged to American International Group Inc., the big insurance and investment firm.

Some of the new banks on the list announced their approval yesterday. They include Ameris Bancorp., an Atlanta-area bank that will get $52 million from the government, and Home Bancshares Inc., of Conway, Ark., which will get $50 million.

BailoutSleuth's updated roster also includes several banks that did not put out press releases announcing their participation, but simply noted it within larger Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

Keep reading to see the master list.
