Washington, DC, October 9, 2012 | Laura Strange (202-225-6405)

Congressman Bob Latta (R-Bowling Green), a member of the House Manufacturing Caucus, has received the National Association Manufacturers (NAM) Award for Manufacturing Legislative Excellence. Congressman Latta was awarded for his consistent support of policies that enhance the ability of U.S. manufacturers to succeed in the global economy.

“With the largest number of manufacturing jobs in Ohio, I am pleased to be recognized by NAM as an advocate for a strong U.S. manufacturing industry. Manufacturing in Ohio is a vital segment of the state’s economy and job market. I will continue to work to ensure Ohio’s manufacturers are able to compete on global scale through a pro-growth and pro-jobs policy agenda,” said Congressman Latta.

“Manufacturers today compete in a global marketplace," said NAM President and CEO Jay Timmons. "It is critical that Washington creates policies to keep us competitive and maintain our mantle of economic leadership. Congressman Latta understands this and has consistently supported the pro-manufacturing agenda through his votes in Congress.”

NAM is the nation’s largest industrial trade association representing small and large manufacturers in every industrial sector and in all 50 states.
