Gov. Perry Speaks at the Lubbock Day Legislative Luncheon

1/25/2011 - AUSTIN - "Even in a state that's held up considerably better than most of the country during the recession, your region stands out.

With an unemployment rate two plus points below the state average and more than three points below the national average your employers clearly know how to put people to work.

In fact, while the nation has lost millions of jobs since 2007 Lubbock has more private sector jobs today than it did when the recession began three years ago and last year added jobs in sectors as diverse as professional services, manufacturing and energy."
