LM Wind Power to Close Little Rock Plant
In 2007, LM Wind Power received $6.9 million from the Governor’s Quick Action Closing Fund, which is tied to the number of employees at the Little Rock plant.
The company also received $8 million from the Economic Infrastructure Fund and qualified for the corporate income tax exemption for wind-power manufacturers, a refund of sales taxes paid during construction and a cash rebate of a percentage of overall payroll.
UPDATE: In a federally required notice of mass layoffs , the company said 415 employees would be affected. The plant will officially close Dec. 31. First official notice will go to employees Friday. The first layoffs will begin July 17 and continue through the year.

Article II, Section 3 both grants and constrains presidential power. This Section invests the President with the discretion to convene Congress on “extraordinary occasions,” a power that has been used to call the chambers to consider nominations, war, and emergency legislation. It further grants the President the authority to adjourn Congress whenever the chambers cannot agree when to adjourn, a power that no President has ever exercised.
He shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient; he may, on extraordinary Occasions, convene both Houses, or either of them, and in Case of Disagreement between them, with Respect to the Time of Adjournment, he may adjourn them to such Time as he shall think proper; he shall receive Ambassadors and other public Ministers; he shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed, and shall Commission all the Officers of the United States.
