-- President Barack Obama and members of his Cabinet will tour several businesses Wednesday that the president says are investing in ways he mentioned in his State of the Union speech.
Obama will head to Wisconsin, where he will tour power technology company Orion Energy Systems and visit with employees.
"In 2004, Orion shifted their manufacturing operations to Manitowoc, Wisconsin, where they now employ over 250 employees and anticipate growing to more than 300 employees by the end of 2011," the White House said in a statement.
Obama will then tour Skana Aluminum Co., a company that plans to hire about 30 more employees this year.
The president will also make a stop at Tower Tech Systems, a wind turbine tower manufacturer that started in 2003 and has grown to more than 300 employees, the White House said.
Vice President Joe Biden will head to Indiana on Wednesday to tour Ener1 Inc., which makes batteries for electric vehicles and received a $118.5 million Recovery Act grant in 2009.
Other members of Obama's Cabinet will head to destinations in Illinois and South Carolina.
"Members of the Cabinet will travel throughout the country to highlight the pillars of the president's remarks, visiting companies and schools that are already engaged in cutting-edge ways to innovate and accelerate economic growth," the White House said.
