Dr. Robert J. Bentley, state legislator and a 2010 Republican candidate for governor, will announce his plan for economic development at 1 p.m. today.

Bentley said in a news release that the plan is called “Putting Alabamians Back to Work.”

“Alabamians have been hit with an unemployment rate of nearly 11% and in 2010 our state will be require the leadership of an individual with extensive experience in the private sector and a comprehensive understanding of state government," Bentley said in the new release. “The role of government is to create an environment through which the private sector puts people back to work.”
