WASHINGTON, DC – TechNet, the bipartisan political network of CEOs that promotes the growth of the innovation economy, today urged Congress to approve the economic rescue package now under consideration.
"We urge Congress to approve the economic rescue package now before the Senate," said Lezlee Westine, president and CEO of TechNet. "Not only is the bill essential to stabilizing our nation's economy, but it also includes vitally important tax incentives for clean energy and research and development that can help create thousands of high skilled jobs in America.
"We strongly believe the financial package before Congress is far too important to the stability of our economy to let fail," said Westine in a press release. "This measure is not just for financial services, and if no action is taken will hurt businesses across every sector because we are all affected by problems in the credit markets. The ramifications would quickly boomerang throughout the whole US economy and we simply cannot let that happen."
