Manufacturing Caucus Mission: The House Manufacturing Caucus examines and promotes policies to help American manufacturers find trained, educated workers, continue to lead the world in developing new industrial technologies, operate on a level playing field with their foreign competitors, and obtain the capital they need to thrive.

I am proud to have introduced The Revitalize American Manufacturing Innovation (RAMI) Act this past year with my colleague Congressman Joe Kennedy of Massachusetts. This legislation is a top priority of mine and will help to spur growth in this sector through public-private partnerships. These partnerships will be formed among higher education, higher education institutions and manufacturers of all sizes to promote best practices and address advanced manufacturing challenges with federal support.

Encouraging manufacturing and technology innovation through coordinating resources will commercialize research and development into manufactured products and train an advanced manufacturing workforce to support our job-creating manufacturers. Having a network of manufacturing institutes is what we need here in America to ‘make it here, sell it there.’ The Revitalize American Manufacturing and Innovation Act will add more manufacturing institutes to bolster private-sector job creation and advance our competitive edge. We’ll engage the best and the brightest minds in manufacturing, academia and business to move American manufacturing forward. For more information on this initiative please contact my office.
