Rep. Rob Woodall Receives Legislative Excellence Award from Manufacturers
Today, the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) recognized U.S. Representative Rob Woodall (GA 07) as a recipient of the Manufacturing Legislative Excellence Award for the 113th Congress. The award is presented to Members of Congress demonstrating a strong commitment to policies that enable U.S. manufacturers to create jobs, compete in a global economy, and improve living standards for their employees. Woodall received a 100% rating on the key votes tracked by the organization.
“We have a tremendous manufacturing community in the Seventh District, and they are leading the charge to grow American jobs and provide quality products for consumers,” said Representative Woodall. “Their success ripples through the entire economy and the best thing Washington can do is provide stable, commonsense policies that partner with their efforts rather than work in opposition to them.”
With a large and robust manufacturing presence throughout the Seventh District, the region is also host to the annual GA Manufacturing Expo, which seeks to highlight local manufacturers and increase awareness of these hometown products among consumers. The relationship is one Woodall believes to be representative of the communities across the area.
“I always brag on the things we have going on right here in the Seventh District, and the movement to promote and support our local manufacturers is another example. As I’ve said before, when I go to Washington and tell our story of success, it isn’t just rhetoric; it’s real-world results. The men and women of this community are always looking to be part of a solution rather than cast blame, and I’m fortunate to represent them.”
Woodall represents the Seventh Congressional District of Georgia, which includes the majority of Gwinnett and Forsyth counties, and also serves as Chairman of the Republican Study Committee.
