WASHINGTON D.C. — Today, Congressman Tim Walz announced the appointment of Meredith Salsbery as his office’s southern Minnesota’s Economic Recovery Coordinator, tasked with providing timely answers to southern Minnesota’s questions and concerns about the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.

The team will help constituents, small business, local governments and schools maximize the benefits of H.R. 1, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Salsbery and the Walz team will coordinate with federal, state and local entities to ensure the investment dollars provided in the recovery act are being spent wisely, getting to the people who need them the most, and have the most positive impact.
