Congress is in recess for President's Day week, making this a district work week for Representative Walz. We've just learned that Congressman Walz will be the guest of Winona's Rotary club tomorrow at 12:30 p.m.:
Winona Health Watkins Manor
175 East Wabasha
Winona, Minnesota
For more information, contact Winona Rotary. We posted earlier about the green recovery Repower America Town Hall meeting in our earlier post, Town hall meeting Friday, February 20 in Mankato.
What: Repower America Town Hall Forum
Environment Minnesota is joining with Congressman Tim Walz and other local environmental groups to host our Repower America Town Hall Forum at the Minnesota State University Mankato. We'll focus on green jobs, the federal economic recovery plan, and our local economy. We’ll discuss how we can fight global warming while creating a clean energy economy for Minnesota. This includes efforts to use the federal economic recovery package to fund “ready to go” clean energy and public transit projects, which will significantly reduce global warming pollution and create jobs. We will also discuss other local, state, and federal opportunities to boost clean energy and fight global warming.
