Hi everyone! I look forward to taking your questions on the White House Easter Egg Roll. It's a wonderful springtime tradition that's held annually on the Monday after Easter. Let's get started.

I am glad to have this opportunity to answer your questions about the Department of Energy and President Bush's energy policy. Earlier today, I joined the President on his trip to Ohio, where he delivered a major speech on energy. He noted that, "One of the most critical needs of our growing economy is an affordable, reliable, secure supply of energy. Everyone who drives a car or runs a farm understands the importance of energy. So does every small business with dreams of becoming a larger business someday. Families and businesses today have concerns about energy, from higher prices at the gas pump, to rising home heating bills, to the possibility of a blackout."

I am pleased to be with you to answer your questions about the President's proposals for strengthening Social Security and
creating personal accounts. Currently, the President and other senior Administration officials are engaging in a conversation with the American public
about the nature of the problems Social Security faces. I hope that you will find my answers to be helpful.

Good afternoon. I'm delighted to be on "Ask the White House" to take your questions on workforce development -- a subject
that is near and dear to my heart and equally important to the President. In fact, I had the pleasure of accompanying the President this morning on
his visit to Anne Arundel Community College in Maryland where he highlighted his proposals to ensure workers can obtain the education and training
they need to succeed in the 21st century economy. This is a new platform for me so I'll try to answer as many questions as I can. Let's get
started.
