Creating Jobs, One Park Ranger at a Time
President Obama says he hopes to save or create 600,000 jobs over the next 100 days with stimulus dollars. The president gave few details yesterday in his quick press conference, but apparently some of those 600,000 jobs will be spread out among hundreds of National Parks across the country. Joining us this morning to talk about how the National Park Service is putting their stimulus dollars to use is David Barna. He’s the Chief of Public Affairs for the National Park Service.
