AAM is getting ready for our third “Keep it Made in America” Town Hall meeting tomorrow night in Columbus, Ohio.  Our host, John Ratzenberger, has been making the rounds in Ohio today, giving interviews and talking to local officials.  Strengthening U.S. manufacturing is a cause John strongly supports, and he wants to see the voters of Ohio attending the 6:30 pm event at The Columbus Athenaeum. 

For those of you who are unable to attend the event, you can ask John a question by emailing him at askjohn@aamfg.org.

As we get ready for the big night in Columbus tomorrow, we thought ManufactureThis readers would enjoy the feature article on the Town Hall meeting in today’s Columbus Dispatch.

AAM has been spreading the word throughout Ohio.  Yesterday’s Cincinnati Post featured an op-ed from AAM Senior Analyst Kerri Houston entitled “China’s business practices threaten jobs here.”  Kerri’s piece discusses the 242,000 manufacturing jobs that Ohio has lost in the past seven years and encourages Ohio voters to ask presidential candidates what they’ll do to save U.S. manufacturing jobs, something we’ll explore in greater depth at the Town Hall meeting.
