Supporting Manufacturers Through Advocacy
The Manufacturers’ Association is committed to helping manufacturers operate, hire, and train smarter. A key part of that mission is maintaining ongoing communication with elected representatives. We regularly meet with policymakers to share industry needs, support pro-business legislation, and keep manufacturing top of mind in Harrisburg and Washington.
We also keep our members informed through our newsletters, email updates, and social media on important legislative developments, advocacy efforts, and outcomes from our meetings.
A Trusted Voice for Manufacturing
The Association frequently provides data, insights, and commentary to news outlets covering manufacturing, workforce development, and related policy issues. We advocate for strong training programs and work actively with state and federal partners to support new initiatives and partnerships that strengthen the region’s workforce.


Strong Regional Partnerships
We stay closely connected with many local chambers of commerce and business organizations across the region. These relationships help us reach small business owners, share resources, and promote the full range of benefits available through the Association.
Helping Manufacturers Stay Informed and Engaged
To help our members stay current on legislation that may impact their business, we provide access to our Grassroots Action Center. This online resource makes it easy to:
- Stay informed about current campaigns and government initiatives
- Find contact information for your local elected officials
- Locate your nearest polling place
