Congressman Bob Latta (R-Bowling Green) received the National Association Manufacturers (NAM) Award for Manufacturing Legislative Excellence, March 12, 2013 at an event hosted by NAM member company Cooper Tire & Rubber Company. “With nearly 60,000 manufacturing jobs in the Fifth Congressional District, ensuring U.S. manufacturers are able to compete on a global scale is critical to both Ohio and America's economy,” said Congressman Latta. “I am honored to accept the National Association of Manufacturers Award for Manufacturing Legislative Excellence, and look forward to continuing to work with NAM to achieve policies that support growth in the manufacturing industry and create jobs here in Ohio and the U.S.” The award is given to members of Congress who score a 70 percent or higher score on key manufacturing votes as determined by the NAM. Congressman Latta scored a 95 percent during the 112th Congress, demonstrating his consistent support for pro-growth, pro-jobs policy agendas. NAM is the nation’s largest industrial trade association representing small and large manufacturers in every industrial sector and in all 50 states. ### |
