Janet Yellen coming to Las Vegas to discuss US economy

Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen will visit the Las Vegas Valley on Monday.

Her remarks are supposed to be about the economy in advance of the one-year anniversary of the Inflation Reduction Act.

She will speak at 2 p.m. at a clean energy facility at 808 N. Lamb Blvd, according to a news release.

In her speech, Yellen is expected to discuss the success of the Inflation Reduction Act as a key pillar of Bidenomics, according to a Treasury Department news release.

“One year into implementation, she will highlight progress toward achieving the Inflation Reduction Act’s three goals: tackling climate change, expanding economic opportunity, and building energy security and economic resilience.”

Before the speech, Yellen will tour the Training Center to see the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers cutting edge clean energy training programs, which train workers to take advantage of the opportunities created by the growth of the clean energy economy.Contact Marvin Clemons at mclemons@reviewjournal.com.
