Economic plan endorsed by union
The United Association is among those calling
President-elect Barack Obama’s economic stimulus bill the right move to
get Americans working again.
The United Association is among those calling President-elect Barack Obama’s $800 billion economic stimulus bill the right move to get Americans working again.
The union, which represents workers in the plumbing, HVAC, pipe fitting and sprinkler industries, is asking all U.S. citizens to support the infrastructure improvements included as part of Obama’s economic plan.
“A better America is something we all want and something our children and grandchildren deserve,” said William P. Hite, the union’s general president. “It’s our obligation to find sensible, workable solutions to get us there. Barack Obama is promoting a national rebuilding plan for energy, hospitals, schools, communication systems, roads and bridges, ports and other vital transportation systems. We should all work toward helping our new president to achieve these objectives.”
Construction work means money for many Americans, Hite said, adding that much of that money will quickly find its way into the U.S. economy.
“Rebuilding America’s infrastructure will revitalize the economy, restore our country’s competitive abilities, create huge numbers of strong new jobs - and in the process, rebuild America’s economy,” he said.
