Obama, NAM and the State of Manufacturing

摘要

"Our first priority is making America a magnet for new jobs and manufacturing," President Obama told the nation in his State of the Union address Feb. 12. There's nothing like a televised SOTU speech to showcase the disunion in the nation's capital. But judging from the applause (and we won't put too much faith in that) that manufacturing received in the speech, the industry is back on the radar of lawmakers and no longer relegated to economic irrelevance.
