Today I attended the announcement that Caterpillar to open a motor grader manufacturing facility in the old video plant in North Little Rock.

Arkansas needs to continue to work to provide a business climate that encourages business to locate in Arkansas or to expand their current business. I applaud the hard work of those involved in bringing this new manufacturer to our state and creating 600 new jobs during such difficult economic times.
