New Graduates Are Seriously Affected!

During this graduation season I had the pleasure to speak with both high school and college graduates who recognize the urgency to restore jobs in the U.S.A. In 2015, several million high school and college graduates are seeking job opportunities. From what I hear, many graduates have found jobs in the field that they were seeking, but millions of others have not been that fortunate. Expanding businesses that can offer more jobs for Americans of all ages is a goal every American consumer should be striving for. Seeking out products made in America has helped us slow down the loss of jobs, but we have a long way to reach our goals.

Today, more Americans are looking closely at labels because they see that cheaper imports may have benefited some people in the short run, but in the long run, too many imports have hurt America's manufacturing base, American workers and America’s economy. Our supporters understand that only when the American people are fully employed would outsourcing jobs around the world be able to be justified to America’s graduates and unemployed Americans. At this point restoring manufacturing in the U.S.A. is a must so we can return to being a full service economy which makes, sells and services at least 50% of everything sold in America.

The bottom line is that using your purchasing power to support American made products will help America’s graduates and American workers across the board. I urge you to seek out American made products and not miss an opportunity to speak up in support of American made and American workers everywhere you shop. Not until there are more jobs than job seekers in the U.S.A. should we support businesses that are not offering a reasonable balance between American made and imported products.
