The &ldquo;Made in Oregon&rdquo; tour is a chance for Senator Merkley to hear directly from Oregon businesses about what is working for Oregon&rsquo;s manufacturers, their challenges, and what policies can help retain and grow jobs here in Oregon and across America.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&ldquo;If we don&rsquo;t build things here in America, we won&rsquo;t have a middle class in America,&rdquo; said Merkley. &ldquo;Oregon has some shining examples of manufacturing facilities, but the reality is that we need more manufacturing jobs here in America. I&rsquo;m excited to spend the next two weeks traveling around the state, hearing from businesses about how we can move forward, build a brighter future, and put Oregonians to work.&rdquo;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>As a member of the Senate Manufacturing Caucus, Senator Merkley is committed to finding solutions to increase manufacturing in America while working to end unfair trade practices that hurt domestic manufacturing.
