He also stated that universities in Indiana like Purdue, Notre Dame, Ivy Tech and Indiana University would receive grant funding to develop programs focusing on electric vehicles. Obama discussed the Recovery Act, passed less than a month after he took office. He stated that it was divided into three parts. One third, he said, went to tax relief for families and small businesses. "A tax cut began showing up in paychecks of 4.3 million Indiana households about three months ago," he said. "We also cut taxes on small businesses, on the investments they make." Another third of the Recovery Act funds, he said, went to emergency relief for people hit hard by economic downturn. "We re making health insurance 65 percent cheaper for families that are relyi/ig on COBRA while looking for work," he said. "For states facing historic budget shortfalls we provided assistance that has saved the jobs of tens of thousands of teachers and police officers and other public servants."

during his presentation, promising health care reform by the end of the year. " In order to lead in the global economy and ensure our business can grow and innovate, we also have to pass health insurance reform," he said. Obama said the Recovery' Act modernized health care infrastructure, like computerizing health records, "which can reduce all the waste and errors that cost billions of dollars and thousands of lives while protecting patients' rights." On the education side, Obama challenged the states to raise standards, upgrade their science labs and update their curriculum. /if we re building new cars here in America, if we re building a new clean energy grid in America, then we're also going to need to build engineers in America and scientists in America and skilled technicians right here in America," he said. Navistar employee Herman Wiley of Elkhart, who works as a group leader in the motorized division, was chosen to introduce Obama during his visit. Wilev was laid off from Monaco in December and hired back in June. Despite his temporary unemployment, he expressed confidence in the future. "I have great faith that someday this economy will turn around, that someday we ll be producing RVS as plentiful as we have in the past," he said. Wiley has been with Monaco for 32 years, since it was known as Holiday Rambler.
