Governor Patrick, Congressman Tierney mark one-year anniversary of Recovery Act with visit to reveal imaging technologies

Marking today's one-year anniversary of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), Governor Deval Patrick and Congressman John Tierney today toured Reveal Imaging Technologies, a national leader in threat detection technology and recipient of nearly $80 million in ARRA contracts from the U.S. Transportation Security Administration to develop and deliver new explosive detection scanning devices. According to estimates, these contracts will have created or saved more than 500 jobs.

The Governor and Congressman touted Reveal Imaging Technologies as an excellent example of how ARRA funds are creating jobs and driving economic recovery during his tour of the facility and in a meeting with individuals and companies who have directly benefited from stimulus funding over the past 12 months.
