President Bush served as commander-in-chief for two consecutive terms from 2001 to 2008. Prior to his presidency, he served for six years as governor of Texas. He was the first governor in Texas history to be elected to consecutive terms.
At The Work Truck Show, the 43rd president of the United States will offer his insights into the challenges facing our nation in the 21st century, the power of freedom, the role of faith and other timely and pressing issues.
"President Bush led this country through times of great economic growth, as well as times of national tragedy," says Frank Livas, NTEA 2012 convention chairman and senior vice president of Brake & Clutch, Inc. (Salem, MA). "It is a privilege to have him address our members and event attendees. We look forward to hearing his reflections on the presidency and his thoughts on leadership and decision-making."
During his presidency, he promoted reform policies on the economy, health care, education and social security, and implemented free trade agreements with more than a dozen nations. He signed into law broad tax cuts.
