BOUCHER TOUR TARGETS NEW INDUSTRY

Rep. Rick Boucher, D-Abingdon, accompanied representatives from Electronic Data Systems Corp. to the New River Valley Monday.

The visit was part of Showcasing Southwest Virginia, an effort to show off Southwest Virginia's industrial sites and lure new businesses to the area.

EDS, which is based in Dallas, is a computer services and information processing company and information technology corporation.

The company operates in 50 states and more than 20 countries, said Sara Broadwater, Boucher's spokeswoman. In Virginia, EDS has 2,800 employees.
