Bloomfield Hills, MI – March 31, 2009 – On
February 17, 2009, President Barack Obama signed into law the
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The Act aims to
stimulate the economy through strategic investments in several key
industries and other areas of focus. In particular, the Act
includes more than $20 billion to aid in the development of a
