On Day 2 of 'Rebuilding America' Week, Manchin to Visit with Manufacturers in Williamson

Manchin will kick off Tuesday with “Coffee and Common Sense” in Parkersburg

***NEW EVENTS ADDED, BOLDED BELOW***

He will also visit Pleasants and Tyler Counties

Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senator Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) on Tuesday will visit with manufacturing interests at Hino Motors in Williamson as part of his “Rebuilding America” Week. Throughout the week, Senator Manchin will meet with business and labor leaders, students, manufacturers and residents during events in at least 20 counties. During these events, Senator Manchin will highlight a multi-pronged, commonsense legislative strategy for job creation and economic growth. 

Also Tuesday, Senator Manchin will hold “Coffee and Common Sense” in Parkersburg and visit the Pleasants and Tyler County Courthouse.

“These are serious times that demand real leadership from Washington. You deserve to know that the leaders you elected are doing all they can to rebuild this country, create jobs, restore confidence in our economy, and move America forward. Washington needs to pass commonsense legislation to create an economic environment that will allow families and businesses – whether in West Virginia or across America – to thrive and succeed,” Senator Manchin said. That means focusing squarely on job creation and fiscal responsibility. I am looking forward to sharing my ideas and collecting commonsense input from West Virginians as I travel throughout the state this month.”
