Gray says any Jackson County area could qualify for EDA aid
Rep. Kenneth J. Gray argues congressional intent for the Economic Development Administration focused on creating jobs, not strict county lines. He says Carbondale is not the sole qualifying area and that any part of Jackson County, including Murphysboro or Boskydell, could be eligible if a project creates jobs.
