Vote for Manufacturing on November 4

Election Day—November 4, 2014—is right around the corner. For Republicans, the Senate majority is within reach, with most political prognosticators giving them a slight edge to take control of that chamber and the full Congress for President Obama’s two remaining years in office. Meanwhile, Democrats in the House of Representatives are trying to chip away at the Republicans’ 17-seat majority as they prepare for a 2016 presidential election with higher voter turnout.

PMA, through its One Voice advocacy partnership, has assembled a number of tools to help all manufacturers participate in the upcoming elections. The One Voice website, www.metalworkingadvocate.org/resources, contains:

• Get Out The Vote (GOTV) poster, for display in your plant

• Congressional Scorecard that tallies how members of Congress have voted and their level of support for small and medium-sized manufacturers

• Invite a Member of Congress to Your Plant—A how-to guide to invite elected officials to tour your plant

• Voter Registration and Early Voting Options—Help employees register to vote, find out if you can vote early and locate a polling location.
