MEDIUM POST: "Make It In America: What’s Next?" Innovative Ideas from the First Hearing

On Thursday, July 9, House Democratic Whip Steny Hoyer and House Democrats held the first hearing in a series of hearings titled “Make It In America: What’s Next?”
Since 2010, House Democrats have been focused on their Make It In America jobs plan to support a robust domestic manufacturing sector, promote American exports, encourage businesses to bring jobs back to the U.S., and invest in education and skills training. Five years later, sixteen Make It In America bills have been signed into law to do just that.
Now, House Democrats are working together to update the Make It In America plan so it reflects the new economic challenges and opportunities we face in 2015. During the first “Make It In America: What’s Next?” hearing, twenty-one House Democrats testified, discussing challenges and successes in their districts and what the Make It In America plan should look like today.
