MEDIUM POST: "Make It In America: What’s Next?" Innovative Ideas from the Second Hearing
On Tuesday, July 28, House Democratic Whip Steny Hoyer hosted the second hearing in a series of hearings titled “Make It In America: What’s Next?” During the second 
hearing, House Democrats heard from outside experts who are leaders in areas critical to our long-term economic competitiveness and job growth, and who shared their thoughts on new challenges and new opportunities in today’s economy.
Since 2010, House Democrats have been focused on the 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. However, today’s economic landscape is clearly different from what it was five years ago, which is why it’s time to update the Make It In America plan for today. This hearing series will explore how the economy has, and hasn’t, changed over the past five years, and what families and businesses need in 2015 to Make It In America.
