“We need to dramatically increase jobs for America’s equipment manufacturers so they are able to prosper and grow right here in the U.S. When they succeed, America wins.”
The Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) launched the I Make America campaign in September of 2010 in an effort to push for the creation of more jobs within the manufacturing industry. The campaign is tied in with the discussion of rebuilding the United States’ infrastructure as a means of increasing the amount of manufacturing jobs available.
I Make America wants to push congress to pass policies that will help the manufacturing industry grow in the United States. Manufacturing supports an estimated 18.6 million jobs in the U.S., which equals out to around one in six private sector jobs. The campaign encourages companies and individuals to reach out to their representatives and ask them for their support.
The manufacturing industry is extremely important for our country today because of the assistance it could lend to the economy as well as the job market if things progress in a positive way. The I Make America campaign and the Association of Equipment Manufacturers believe that manufacturing jobs are a vital component in helping our country move forward.
