House Reboots Manufacturing Extension Partnership Funding
The U S House voted to restore and increase funding for the Manufacturing Extension Partnership, a 16 year old program aiding small and mid sized manufacturers to improve operations and protect jobs. The plan would authorize 470 million over four years with 110 million next year, while creating a coordinating interagency commission and new joint grants for industry and academia. OH residents hope the revived program boosts local manufacturing and jobs.
