On the recordJuly 7, 2004
Our amendment is intended to condition $50,000 for the Manufacturing Council on the expansion of its membership to correct a serious mistake, and that is omitting basic steel and organized labor from advising them on manufacturing. The amendment will literally do what we say it will do. I also want to commend the gentleman for the concern that he has expressed about offshoring of our industries. I think it is important that we pay attention to that. This amendment will help this country put a renewed emphasis on a Manufacturing Council which has a glaring omission: They do not have the steel industry represented on it.
