Political Quotes

On the recordDecember 1, 2014
My constituents in Pennsylvania know that American-made means American jobs. Whether it is the medical device manufacturer that employs hundreds or the family small shop down the road, the jobs and products created by American businesses in our communities are what drives our economy. December is Made in America Month and the perfect time for leaders in both parties to come together around commonsense policies that put American businesses and the American worker first. The bipartisan Made in America Act is just that kind of policy. This legislation would connect American consumers to American manufacturers by creating a definitive, standardized labeling for American-made goods. By incentivizing businesses and manufacturers to meet certain ``Made in America'' benchmarks for domestic production and providing consumers with reliable and easy-to-understand information, the Made in America Act can meet two very valuable goals: increasing American purchases of American goods and reshoring American businesses and American jobs. Making it in America is crucial to ensuring better jobs and more opportunities for our families across the Nation so, during this Made in America Month, let's work together and let's get it done. ____________________
