President Obama to visit Intel plant in Oregon
By Jon Swartz, USA TODAY

That's the word from the White House, which just announced the Feb. 18 trip to Hillsboro, Ore., as part of the president's push for technology. He will appear with Intel CEO Paul Otellini.

Obama will tour one of the world's largest and most advanced semiconductor manufacturing facilities, and learn more about Intel's STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) education programs -- part of Intel's efforts to prepare the next generation to compete for high-tech jobs.

In his State of the Union address last month, Obama repeatedly spoke of "winning the future" by preparing children to be competitive in the global economy. His plan calls for key investments in education to grow the economy and create more jobs.
