In his State of the State address, Governor Ted Strickland proposed a
$1.7 billion jobs package, expanding access to college for high school
seniors and allowing the governor to appoint a newly-created Director
of the Ohio Department of Education.
Strickland outlined a $1.7 billion jobs stimulus package, Building Ohio
Jobs, which will invest in job-creating industries and Ohio workers.
Through issuing bonds, the $1.7 billion Building Ohio Jobs package will
create more than 80,000 good-paying jobs in Ohio and lay the foundation
for future economic prosperity by investing in the state's energy
economy, distribution infrastructure, biomedicine, bioproducts, public
