AISI President Joins Steel Caucus Chairman in Radio Spot

AISI's Andy Sharkey joins House Steel Caucus Chairman Rep. Phil English (R-PA) this month in a radio news spot being distributed nationally that urges Congress to strengthen America's trade laws and keep U.S. manufacturing jobs here in America.

Rep. English introduced HR 5529 this year, "The Trade Law Reform Act of 2006," to strengthen domestic trade laws and level the playing field for American manufacturers competing against foreign unfair and predatory trade practices.

"My initiative is a comprehensive proposal that will serve America's interests and keep American jobs at home," Rep. English says in the news spot. "We can no longer tolerate unfair trade at the expense of our workers."

"Congressman English's bill paves the way for strengthened trade laws, a reduction in currency manipulation abuses by our trading partners, and will also help keep manufacturing jobs here in the United States where they belong," Andy Sharkey comments.

The spot will air beginning Thursday, August 3, on Radio America Network's 750 stations nationwide.
