    Rebuilding America

    June 18, 2020
    Tour and Remarks, Pennsylvania

    Secretary Ross Tweet on June 18
    I will travel to #Pennsylvania tomorrow and participate in tour at @AGItweets in Philadelphia and a roundtable discussion at the @GWBChamber in Wilkes-Barre. I will address the @realDonaldTrump  Administration's economic recovery efforts.

    AGI Tweet on June 18
    We look forward to hosting Secretary Ross at AGI/@ComSpOC and discussing the importance of the #spaceeconomy, #spaceflight safety, and #space traffic management.

    Since the lockdowns in March, American families have been yearning for good economic news, and in the past two weeks, we have, thankfully, seen clear indications of a strong economic revival. 
    In Pennsylvania, there have been 158,720 CARES Act loans with a net amount of $20.5 billion.

    This major program - along with additional weekly COVID-19 unemployment benefits, and actions taken by the Federal Reserve Board - provided an unprecedented investment in the American economy.

    Congressman Dan Meuser Tweet on June 18
    I was pleased to welcome @SecretaryRoss to Northeast PA this afternoon for a meeting with members of the @GWBChamber. Thank you to the Trump Administration for building a great national economy and leading a Great American Comeback.

    Once the all-clear sounds on the coronavirus, there will be an incredible pentup, demand in the travel and hospitality sector.

    Our airports will be filled with Americans anxious to visit families and take vacations. Business travelers will head to long-delayed meetings and conventions. 

    Our restaurants and retail establishments will reopen. We are all eager for the end of this pandemic.

    Secretary Ross Tweet on June 18
    Thank you to the manufacturers in Pennsylvania and across the U.S. that shifted your production lines to produce life-saving medical protective equipment during #COVID19. It was, and is, a display of the private sector's agility and ingenuity to respond to radical changes in markets. It proves that our industries can quickly fill gaps in supply chains as companies re-shore production from overseas factories.
