Newsletter: Dave's Weekly Wrap

Statement

Hello,

It was a busy and productive week in Congress this week and I look forward to seeing my constituents throughout the district in my upcoming week at home.

Buy American

This week, I introduced a bipartisan bill that will strengthen Buy America laws which impact federal purchases when it comes to transportation.

If we are going to spend the tax dollars of our hard-working constituents, we should at least do everything we can to spend them on American made products and projects whenever possible.

Closing these loopholes means the competitive advantage goes to American companies and will create American jobs, not foreign ones.

Small Business Symposium

I'll be participating in a Small Business Symposium on June 5th and I hope you'll consider attending. The deadline to register is Thursday 5/28.

Impressive High School Students

I had a chance to meet Zachary Bogorad from Solon High School yesterday, he's a member of the U.S. Physics team. He is an impressive young man and is certainly making us proud.

Appropriations

The House continues to get things done. This week we passed the FY16 Legislative Branch Appropriations Bill to make sure legislative branch operations can continue.

Memorial Day

Thank you to all of the men and women who have served and sacrificed to make our nation the greatest on Earth. Let us remember them on this Memorial Day.

Dave
