LANSING (AP) — Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm is traveling to Washington to talk about energy issues with members of President-elect Barack Obama’s transition team.
Granholm is being mentioned as a potential pick to be the next energy secretary. But her spokeswoman says the Democratic governor isn’t going to Washington Wednesday for a job interview.
Instead, Granholm will talk up Michigan as a place to create new energy jobs.
Obama has pledged to use part of his proposed economic stimulus package to develop alternative energies and “green” technologies.
The governor will be joined by her top energy advisers.Granholm also plans to meet with Michigan’s congressional delegation to discuss government loans for the domestic auto industry and a stimulus package.
