First lady praises employees at Energy Department

WASHINGTON (AP) — On a visit to the Energy Department on Thursday, first lady Michelle Obama quizzed middle-school students about red blood cells and nanotechnology during a practice science quiz competition.

Mrs. Obama also praised department employees during her 13th stop on a tour of the federal bureaucracy.

“You don’t often get the thanks that you deserve,” she said. “Sometimes you get a lot of the blame and none of the credit for the progress that has gone on in this country.”
