Quote from the article:
"Over the last year, Ed has crisscrossed the country in a tireless effort to cut through red tape and speed the economic recovery for those hit hardest by the auto industry's struggles," President Barack Obama said in a statement today. "The results of his efforts have been felt in auto towns across America -- from the factories being put back to use years ahead of schedule to the workers retraining for jobs in emerging industries." Montgomery, who joined the administration in March 2009, left his post as dean of the University of Maryland's College of Social and Behavioral Sciences. |
