On September 4, EPA sponsored and Mayor Walling hosted the Manufacturing Communities Roundtable meeting in Flint, Michigan. The roundtable was part of the White House Investing in Manufacturing Communities Partnership. Mayor Bernero of Lansing, Chairman of the U.S. Conference of Mayors’ Advanced Manufacturing Task Force addressed the audience of over 100 stakeholders. Senator Debbie Stabenow and Congressman Dan Kildee shared their support for investments in workforce development, infrastructure, clean energy opportunities, and tax incentives. Other federal agency partners who joined our conversation in Flint included the Economic Development Administration, the Department of Labor’s Office of Recovery for Auto Communities and Workers, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Department of Energy, and the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
