Michigan Congressman Joe Knollenberg (R-MI) discusses manufacturing in Michigan and the role government plays in fostering innovation.
Elected to Congress in 1992, Knollenberg is the ranking member on the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Transportation and Housing and Urban Development. Knollenberg is one of the auto industry's most effective advocates in Congress. He has fought to rescind costly steel tariffs that drive up the cost of auto manufacturing for The Big Three and their suppliers. In the 110th Congress, Knollenberg is working to promote alternative fuels as a means to reduce America's dependence on Middle East oil and to prevent job-killing increases in federal fuel economy regulations.
