Henry Helps Land Lucrative Boeing Jobs

Oklahoma Democratic State Party Chair Lisa Pryor said today Governor Brad Henry's leadership is what will continue to bring lucrative economic development to the state of Oklahoma. Boeing Co. announced it will occupy a new maintenance and technology center in Oklahoma City. Henry helped to land the lucrative aerospace project that will produce close to 1,000 jobs and infuse the state with millions of new dollars.

"Brad Henry is delivering on his campaign promise to make Oklahoma a better place to work and do business," Pryor said. "Building strong national alliances with high tech companies like Boeing proves that Governor Henry is continuing to grow Oklahoma's economy and capitalize on our talented workforce. He is addressing issues important to Oklahoma families: security and job creation."
