Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner Visits Minnesota and Addresses Jobs

Tim Geithner visited Golden Valley, Minnesota recently to address the country and state on a number of issues, the most important being the creation of new jobs that is the greatest impediment to the stagnant economy. Geithner emphasized the importance of green technology and announced an additional $5 billion for “green” manufacturing companies. Manufacturers that produce green products would be eligible.

Geithner took a tour of Honeywell International Inc.’s plant and Standard Heating and Air Condition, located in Plymouth, Minnesota. The treasury secretary visited the state only a few hours after President Barack Obama addressed the nation. Geithner acknowledged the need for the government to win the confidence of the American people by interacting with local state governments and private businesses to help improve the economic situation for all through job creation and tax breaks.
