Why Should You Attend
The COVID pandemic proved that we cannot rely on imports of pharmaceuticals and PPE equipment and supplies to protect the health and welfare of Americans. We cannot defend our country if the products needed by the military and defense industry become unavailable.
America is at a crossroads. We can either continue down the path of increasing trade deficits, increasing national debt, and loss of manufacturing jobs by allowing manufacturing to be outsourced to countries with predatory trade policies. There are dangerous implications of the continued erosion of American industrial and manufacturing capabilities in sectors critical to national security, such as defense equipment, semiconductors, telecom supplies, and pharmaceuticals. The continued degradation of America’s industrial base is creating domestic vulnerabilities and weakening our ability to compete.
It’s time for all Americans to wake up America to the dangers of being dependent on other countries for manufacturers goods, especially one that has become a threat to our country.
We must forge a new path by rebuilding American manufacturing to win the international competition for good jobs, sustained economic growth, and a strong, secure domestic supply chain if we want to remain a free country.
