Investing in Innovation, Clean Energy and Small Business

The White House Economy and Jobs Agenda
Tuesday, August 31, 2010
 

The Week In Economy and Jobs

Yesterday, President Obama called on a partisan minority in Congress to stop obstructing common-sense measures like tax cuts and increased lending for small businesses to help our economy grow. Over the past few weeks, President Obama travelled to Wisconsin, Washington and Ohio to meet with business owners and families and discuss the challenges they are facing in these tough economic times.

Last week, Vice President Biden released a report outlining the Recovery Act’s $100 billion investment in innovation that is not only transforming the economy and creating new jobs, but helping accelerate significant advances in science and technology.  On Wednesday, the Vice President met with small business owners in Washington, DC, to discuss tax policies designed to help middle class families and small businesses.
