Made in America.

That’s not just a slogan, but a purpose, friend.

My Dad and I put up an American flag ahead of the holiday season, and as many of you know, the process is much more successful with determination, brawn, and some patriotic songs.

Here’s what isn’t successful: under current law, American flags – paid for by American taxpayers – aren’t required to be made in America.

I was shocked by this, and I’m leading the charge in Congress to make sure this practice stops here. 

We have some of the best workers in the world right here in IL-17 and the surrounding area, ready and excited to make the flags that symbolize our freedom and accompany our service members into battle.

And I’m going to make sure they and other Americans get the opportunity to produce our most treasured emblem.

We need leaders committed to American workers. If you’re with us, please donate $5  to ensure we have a representative who’ll fight for us in Washington.

Made in America can’t just be a goal. It has to be a requirement.
