Excerpt
The Obama administration this week will dispatch 12 Cabinet secretaries, a handful of assistant and deputy secretaries and a few other agency administrators to more than 30 cities and towns in 18 states to mark the first anniversary of the economic stimulus plan.
Three states -- Colorado, Ohio and Texas -- will get at least three visits from administration officials. Arizona, Virginia and California will be visited twice. The tour includes stops in historically purple states and states where incumbent Democratic senators face tough reelection battles.
It begins with a visit by Vice President Biden to Michigan Tuesday. President Obama also will hold an event at the White House on Wednesday to mark the anniversary, before heading to Colorado, where he signed the Recovery Act into law on Feb. 17, 2009.
