President Obama's trip to Asheville was short, but definitely sweet. Remarks made during his speech at Linamar Wednesday is not only benefiting the city, but it's also creating a name for AB-Tech.
The president used the community college as an example to promote his plan to get people back to work. President Obama touted the AB-Tech with providing the skill set students need to transition into the work force.
The president also says partnerships with AB-Tech and local industry companies will help create even more jobs in Asheville.
