AEM President Dennis Slater delivers a critical message to U.S. Senators on Wednesday alongside Ed Wytkind, President of the Transportation Trades Department, AFL-CIO (far left), Sen. Bob Casey (PA) and Sen. Barbara Boxer (CA).

AEM pushes “infrastructure investment creates jobs” message to U.S. Senators

Speaking at a press conference following an invitation-only meeting of key U.S. senators Jan 27, AEM President Dennis Slater forcibly relayed the direct connection between infrastructure investment and job creation for the construction industry and entire manufacturing sector. Slater was selected to attend as the sole representative of the manufacturing sector, in recognition of AEM's leadership role in support of critical infrastructure investment and the “Start Us Up USA!” campaign, which advocates timely passage of multi-year transportation legislation. “The single best way to bring back hundreds of thousands of good-paying, sustainable manufacturing jobs in the U.S. is to pass major long-term investments in our critical national infrastructure,” Slater noted.
